Summer Programs
This summer the UTA College of Engineering will host a new type of summer program. We will be putting on a series of one-day workshops that focus on specific areas of engineering. During these workshops, students in 5th – 9th grade and their accompanying adult will spend the day learning about a particular field or topic in engineering. The day could consist of presentations from faculty, lab tours, experiments, hands-on projects, and more here on the UTA campus.
