Welcome to Difference Makers Engineering Camp

Thank you for joining us for the first TRSA Virtual Summer Academy. As unprecedented times call for unprecedented measures we have taken all our summer camps into the virtual space opening the activities and curriculum to ALL families! Please enjoy the following camps and we would love to give a big "Shout Out" to our partners providing videos, activities, interviews and experiences.

Who is this camp for? Rising 9th-12th graders

What is it about? Use engineering as a force for good! In this camp, students will explore the real needs of individuals, brainstorm solutions, and design tools to assist individuals’ needs. Are you ready to make a difference in the lives of others through engineering?

Who made this camp possible? This camp and the materials you received are made possible by the following engineering organizations:

  • Oklahoma Society of Professional Engineers (OSPE) - OSPE is dedicated to the promotion, protection, and advancement of the profession of engineering as a social and economic influence vital to the public welfare. Learn more at https://www.ospe.org/.

  • Society of American Military Engineers (SAME) - SAME builds leaders and leads collaboration among government and industry to develop multi-disciplined solutions to national security infrastructure challenges. Learn more at https://www.same.org/.

  • Tulsa Engineering Foundation (TEF) - TEF is a foundation of engineering societies and universities/colleges, formed to assist in coordinating activities and services for the member societies and to promote science, math and engineering in the community. Learn more at https://tulsaengineer.org/.

How do I participate?

  1. Take our Pre-Survey before you start on any materials. You can find this at the top of the Day 1 page.

  2. This is a self-paced camp, but we encourage you to go through each day in order.
