Students gain practical experience in robotics through a team-based, hands-on approach culminating in a robot competition.
The CSU Northridge Robotics Camp (SAEP) offers middle school students an immersive, hands-on introduction to engineering, design, and programming using VEX Robotics systems. Campers will explore the fundamentals of robotics, learning how mechanical systems, sensors, and coding integrate to bring machines to life. Working in collaborative teams, students will design, build, and program their own robots, applying problem-solving strategies and engineering principles throughout the development process. The program emphasizes testing prototypes, refining designs, and troubleshooting challenges in a dynamic, real-world STEM environment. The week culminates in an exciting team competition where students test their robot's capabilities, gaining confidence, creativity, and practical skills in science, math, and engineering.
A typical day involves students working in collaborative teams to design, build, and program VEX robots, applying engineering principles and troubleshooting challenges.
This camp is ideal for middle school students (grades 6-9) interested in a hands-on introduction to robotics, engineering, and programming.
