About this camp

This camp exposes students to the engineering design process, programming, and real-world problem-solving using VEX IQ materials. Campers will study a problem, formulate multiple solutions, create, and improve on their designs. The week culminates in an internal robotics tournament where campers test their skills and robots. Students will gain experience in teamwork and collaboration, leaving with an engineering design notebook and images/videos of their creations. Campers interested in joining VEX IQ teams for the upcoming school year can begin working on the 2026-2027 challenge.
