Kentucky is at risk for earth, weather, and environmental hazards. Join faculty and students from University of Kentucky for this FREE three-day camp to learn about how earth scientists research hazards in Hopkinsville like flooding, landslides, tornadoes, earthquakes, drought, and water quality concerns. Whether you consider this an early college resume-builder or just an educational interlude to a summer spent lounging by the pool or playing video games, we're excited to bring this knowledge to them!
Students will get hands-on experience with the methods and data we use to help try to predict these costly and dangerous threats. Using modern technologies like drones, virtual reality, and GIS, we aim to better understand how scientists and engineers work on natural hazards before and after they happen to help keep Kentuckians safe. Students will leave the third day ready to help their families and community prepare for and respond to natural hazards.
Thanks to funding from the KY NSF EPSCoR CLIMBS project, this camp is completely free (really!) and open to eligible students. Lunch and snacks will be provided each day. Registration is limited to 20 students per camp.
Eligibility: Rising 7th, 8th, and 9th grade Kentucky residents are eligible. If you have specific questions about the program and eligibility, reach out to us at ZW52aXJvcG9kcyB8IHVreSAhIGVkdQ==
