Summer is the perfect time for pre-college students to experience Bowling Green State University while expanding their knowledge, building life skills and exploring their interests.

Deadlines are approaching for these exciting summer camps:

Forensic Science Camp June 19 – 21
The combination of a world-class, on-campus Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation crime laboratory and criminal investigation facility with the resources of an internationally recognized academic institution have produced a unique interactive learning environment for high school students age 15 to 17 years old (as of January 1, 2017) who are interested in exploring the field of forensic science.

Health Career Exploration Camp June 26 – 30

High school students interested in a career in the health field can gain insight into eight pre-professional areas during this camp. Attendees will participate in a lesson on personalized medicine, extract DNA, explore dentistry and optometry and more.

Robotics July 10-12
The College of Technology, Architecture and Applied Engineering hosts this three-day robotics camp for students who will design and build their very own robot, use the robot in a game called “Hatch the Falcon Egg” and explore careers in engineering and robotics.

Art and Robotics July 17 – 21
These weeklong camps held at the Toledo Museum of Art will give participants a crash course in the fundamentals of 2D and 3D media. The intensive workshops provide a great introduction and foundation for teen artists who wish to work in these exciting mediums. Courses include digital photography, mixed media painting and interactive art.

Summer Music Institute June 11 – 30
BGSU’s Summer Music Institute features intensive sessions designed to improve techniques and musicianship in a fun and supportive atmosphere. Students will study with BGSU music faculty, guest artists and experienced college students who will challenge and inspire. Sessions include double reed, brass, musical theatre, strings, vocal arts, saxophone and recording.
