Welcome! And thanks for your interest in the CREOL SUMMER SCIENCE CAMPS at UCF
 

Summer science camps are geared toward highly motivated children who have a strong interest in science, mathematics, and technology. Each camp is conducted by certified Florida teachers and the curriculum is developed by a team of scientists and educators from the University of Central Florida. Camps are one week long. Daily hours are 9:00 am to 4:00 pm. All activities are high interest, hands-on, and team based and includes enrichment activities. There are three grade levels for each camp: Grades 3-5, Grades 6-8, and Grades 9-12 (grade level is for the upcoming school year)
 

Each camp is $290.00 per week per child.  Camps have a maximum size of 15 children conducted by a certified teachers. Lunch and snacks included.  Many of the activities will include a set of materials that the students will keep for future experimentation.

Once registered, you will receive information about the schedule, drop off locations and other details.  All camps will take place on the UCF Main Campus.

Amusement Park Physics
Having fun riding coasters is serious physics!  Campers will explore why they stay in their seats while going through vertical loops, why they get pushed into their seats on tight turns, and what causes the feeling of weightlessness in long drops.  They will take the science out of the classroom on the final day of the week as they go to a theme park and put science into action!

Forensics

Find out "who dunnit" and along the way learn about the techniques that real forensics scientists use to solve crimes. Learn about data collection and analysis, blood splatter observation techniques, hair, fingerprint, and fiber analysis, and at the end of the week solve a crime that involves
all the techniques learned.
