Students build and compete with their own underwater robots in a university campus pool setting.
The Temple University SeaPerch Robots camp offers middle school students an immersive, hands-on experience in underwater robotics. Participants work in cooperative learning groups to design and construct a Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV). Through this process, students gain practical skills and knowledge in robotics, engineering, science, and mathematics (STEM). The program culminates in exciting pool competitions where teams test their robots' capabilities. Prizes are awarded based on design, planning, and performance in challenges. This multidisciplinary program fosters problem-solving, critical thinking, and teamwork in a fun and engaging environment.
A typical day involves cooperative learning group work, building and refining the underwater ROV, and preparing for pool competitions.
This camp is best for middle school students (rising 6th to 9th graders) interested in robotics, engineering, science, and math.
