👁️💻 Follow the data—literally!
Our Human Interaction in Eye Tracking campers wrapped up an intense week of designing and running their own experiments using real eye-tracking technology.

From coding and calibration to visualizing eye movements and analyzing results, these students took on human-subjects research like pros. 🔬📊
We see bright futures ahead!

🧬🔧 Warning: Bioengineering campers may cause extreme curiosity.
This week, some of our scholars are diving into the world where engineering meets medicine—exploring biomedical tools, learning about human anatomy, and getting hands-on with real lab equipment.

From navigating colon models to testing surgical tech, they’re learning how bioengineers solve health challenges and improve lives through design, research, and innovation.

Engineering? Medicine? Why not both! 💡💉

🎶✨ Finding their voice—and their future!
At the Clemson Vocal Institute, campers are spending the week growing as performers through choral and solo work, preparing for auditions, and getting a real taste of life in the performing arts.

From rehearsals to recitals at the nationally ranked Brooks Center, these students hit every note of what it means to be a 21st century vocalist 💜🎤

📸☀️ Session 7 is here—and it’s our grand finale!
We’re thrilled to welcome our final group of Summer Scholars campers and finish the 2025 season strong. Let’s make this last week one to remember! 💜🧡🐾

📦🎨 PACK Camp brought the design game this week!
From materials science to consumer psychology, our campers explored what makes packaging smart, sustainable, and shopper-approved.

Their final challenge? Designing packaging for pickleball sets—and they served up some serious creativity! 🏓💡

🔬💥 Microscope? More like microscope Super Bowl.
Our Materials Engineering campers got hands-on with Clemson’s cutting-edge scanning transmission electron microscope—one of the only ones of its kind in academic use in the U.S.!

With the power to magnify up to 3 million times, these future engineers are seeing the world at a whole new level (literally). 🧪👀

🎶🔥 Future rockstars in the making!
Our songwriting campers are learning the structure of great songs—verses, choruses, bridges—and bringing their own lyrics and melodies to life.

From piano sessions to air guitar jams, this group is totally in tune with their creativity. 🎸📝
Can’t wait to hear what they create by the end of the week!

📸🐾 Session 6 is officially underway!
Our newest group of Summer Scholars kicked off their first day with energy, excitement, and lots of smiles. Let the fun begin! 💜

📚💜 Session 5, that’s a wrap!
As our campers head home today, we’re looking back on some of the best classroom moments from the week—full of learning, curiosity, and hands-on fun.

We’re so proud of everything they accomplished! 🐾
