GCC'S "Tech Camp" Previews High-Tech World to High School Students, July 11-14
A selected group of West Valley high school students will be introduced to the fascinating world of hands-on technology, from basic computing to electronics and robotics, when Glendale Community College hosts its 7th annual "Tech Camp," July 11-14, from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. each day.
GCC, the National Science Foundation and the Western Maricopa Tech Prep Consortium are partnering to offer this four-day immersion-learning experience for West Valley students. Eligible students are those who will be in high school this fall—freshmen through seniors.
Lab exercises and classroom projects will provide students many opportunities for interaction with GCC faculty. Field trips to technology companies and meetings with employer panels will provide contact with industry leaders and give insight into various tech fields and career opportunities.
This exciting learning opportunity--including breakfast and lunch all four days—is free for the selected applicants. Students must apply to attend Tech Camp and are encouraged to do so soon, as seating is strictly limited. Students should apply online at www.gc.maricopa.edu/techcamp, where they will find an on-line application form and a complete agenda of Tech Camp's activities. Interested persons may also call Tech Camp Director Manny Griego at
manny.griego@gcmail.maricopa.edu or 623-845-3520 for more information. GCC is located at 6000 W. Olive Avenue in Glendale.
