\"SAU<\/a>Southern Arkansas University Engineering is hosting three-day, two-night Engineering Summer Camp from July 11-13, 2016.<\/p>\n

The engineering and physics camp is open to students entering grades eight through 12. The registration fee is $250, which includes room and board. Applications are due online at www.SAUmag.edu\/Engineering-Camp<\/a> by July 2. Checks can be made out to \u201cSAU Engineering Camp\u201d and mailed to Southern Arkansas University, ATTN: Sarajane Telford, 100 E. University, MSC 9397, Magnolia, AR 71753. For more information, contact Telford at sjtelford@saumag.edu<\/a> or (870) 235-4290.\"SAU<\/a><\/p>\n

Participants will enjoy hands-on projects related to engineering and physics. Engineering projects will include building and programming of Lego Mindstorms robots, playing with Arduimo-based electronics and hardware, designing the path of a robotic arm, building of model<\/p>\n

bridges and structures, design and modeling with Solid Works and material testing using a force tester.<\/p>\n

\"EngSummerCampFlyer16\"<\/a>Physics projects will include designing and building electrical circuits, learning about space radiation and performing nuclear physics experiments and learning about wave interference, diffraction and beats with a sound laser.<\/p>\n

There will be an awards ceremony at the end of the camp.<\/p>\n

SAU launched the only four-year engineering program in the southern half of Arkansas fall 2014, and enrollment has reached more than 160 students in its second year. The University will soon begin construction to renovate the former armory on the SAU campus to house the growing Engineering program.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
