BSS gives motivated high school students the opportunity to experience college life while strengthening academic and leadership skills. Participants explore challenging topics, build college-ready habits, and learn what it's like to study on a university campus. Minimum GPA requirements: 9th and 10th Grade - Unweighted GPA of 3.0 or higher. Program runs May 31-June 3, 2026.

Transportation Extravaganza is a new summer day camp hosted at ASU for rising 11th and 12th-grade students who are curious about the world of transportation--from walking and biking to trains, cars, airplanes, and everything in between. Over five action-packed days, students will explore ASU labs, participate in hands-on transportation-related challenges, and take field trips to local transportation hubs and infrastructure sites, such as airports, traffic management centers, or engineering facilities. The program blends interactive workshops, team-building activities, and real-world experiences to help students discover the wide range of careers that keep people and goods moving--while also giving them a taste of college life and engineering innovation. Camp runs June 1st - June 5th, 2026.

Ready to see how engineering can change the world - and have some serious fun doing it? Dive headfirst into the high-impact world of robotics alongside other driven high school students. This isn't a lecture, it's a build, test, compete experience. You'll use your design skills to enhance an underwater robot and put it to the test at the National Underwater Robotics Competition, tackling a high-stakes mission unlike anything you've done before. Camp runs June 2nd - June 7th, 2026.

The Engineering Projects in Community Service program, known as EPICS, is a national award-winning social entrepreneurship program. Students design, build, and deploy systems to solve engineering-based problems for charities, schools, and other not-for-profit organizations. During this program, students will be introduced to engineering design, rapid prototyping (laser cutting, CAD, Arduino, 3D printing), and prototype testing through a hands-on, application-based summer camp. Members from the community will introduce a problem encountered by their non-profit, and students will spend the week designing, building, and testing a possible solution to meet their user needs. EPICS projects range from solar panel battery systems, engagement toys for animals at the Phoenix Zoo, 3D printed prosthetics, and tools for training service dogs. Week runs June 8th - 12th, 2026.

The César E. Chávez Leadership Institute (CCLI) is a summer experience for rising juniors and seniors who want to grow as leaders and make a difference in their communities. Students spend time on Arizona State University's Tempe campus building leadership skills, learning about civic engagement, and exploring the lasting impact of César Chávez's work. Through hands-on activities and group experiences, students will gain confidence, learn how to use their voice, and take steps toward high school completion and future college opportunities. Program runs June 21-24, 2026. Eligibility: Applicants entering the 11th or 12th grade in Fall 2026 are eligible to apply. While no minimum GPA is required for eligibility, eligible students should demonstrate a GPA of 2.7 or higher.
