Civil Engineers

High school students can become involved in civil engineering by attending a summer camp or study program in the field. For example, the University of Maryland, Clark School of Engineering offers several pre-college engineering and science summer programs for middle and high school students. Campers have a chance to interact with engineering students and faculty, visit engineering facilities and labs, and participate in hands-on projects. Visit https://eng.umd.edu/pre-college-programs/summer for more information. Another option is to participate in the Civil, Architectural, and Environmental Engineering Summer Institute at Drexel University (https://drexel.edu/engineering/academics/high-school-programs/summer-institutes).
