Campers get to design and build their very own model amusement park with custom rides, combining creativity with real-world engineering principles.
Junior innovators will delve into the exciting world of amusement parks, exploring the science, physics, and engineering that make them thrilling. Campers will investigate roller coaster dynamics, ride safety, structural design, and theme integration. Through hands-on experiments and engineering challenges, they will apply STEM principles to real-world scenarios. The ultimate outcome of the week is for participants to design and construct their own model amusement park, complete with custom rides and attractions, fostering creativity, problem-solving, and practical engineering skills.
A typical day involves engaging in hands-on activities, experiments, and design challenges related to theme park engineering, with opportunities to visit Arizona Science Center exhibits and attend Dome presentations.
This camp is ideal for curious minds who enjoy building, inventing, and exploring the scientific and engineering principles behind how things work, especially those with an interest in amusement parks.
