Exciting Students About Science &

Engineering


ASM MATERIALS CAMP

2014
MATERIALS IN TODAYS WORLD
Materials science and engineering is a study of the relationship between the structure of materials at atomic
scales and their macroscopic properties. The field uses a combination of chemistry, physics, engineering and
biology to further advance various areas of science and engineering. Some applications include nanomachines,
bioimplants, smart materials, fuel cells, genetic engineering and space craft. In addition to discovering new
materials and exploiting their properties, materials scientists also aim to understand materials so that new
materials with the desired properties can be created. Materials scientists & engineers lead the way in turning
today's ideas into tomorrow's reality.

Who:
Students entering their Junior (Grade 11) or Senior (Grade 12) year in high
school in Fall 2014, or those entering their freshman year of college.
Highly motivated inquisitive learners with math, science & engineering aptitude.

What:
Day camp utilizing hands-on learning principles of applied math and science.
A very unique team-based, intensive problem solving science experience under
the direction of a distinguished world-class faculty, Materials Mentor.
Combination of mini-demonstrations, field trips with extensive involvement in
laboratory facilities to actively explore materials science & engineering
principles.

Where & When: UW-Milwaukee, Department of Materials Science & Engineering, College of
Engineering and Applied Science, June 16-20, 2014. (8 am - 4 pm Mon-Thurs; 8 am-12:30 pm Friday)
