AMSE's Science Explorer Camp

AMSE’s Science Explorer Camp is designed for rising fifth, sixth, and seventh graders, with a focus on a variety of science topics approached via field explorations and hands-on activities. Located at the historic Freels Bend Cabin site, campers cover topics such as insects, habitats, water, life sciences, weather, geology, fossils, flight, electricity, and robots. The week concludes with a tour of Oak Ridge National Laboratory, as well as special presentations by ORNL researchers.

AMSE.csi

Everybody loves a mystery. Come investigate, explore, and do experiments by conducting many hands-on forensic science tests on evidence found at the ‘crime scene’. You will directly experience both real-life applications of science and the joys of scientific explorations in this week long investigation of ‘who did it?’ at the AMSE.csi (crime scene investigation).
