Robotics In Manufacturing Camp

Designed to demystify the world of modern manufacturing, the Robotics in Manufacturing invites kids to explore the innovations powering the local economy and offers a chance to start learning the skills themselves. From building circuits to programming robots to navigating mazes, students interact with technology not just as consumers but as creators. It’s summer camp, reimagined for a 21st-century workforce. 

Each week-long camp is built around rotating activity stations, where students engage with tools like KaiBots, micro:bits, manual and electrical circuit building, and 3D printing software—skills that mirror those found on the floors of regional manufacturers. At the industry station, campers experience different steps of the manufacturing process, with simulated work partnerships, logistical processes and assembly line production, helping students connect what they’re learning to what’s happening in Greater Lafayette’s booming advanced manufacturing sector. 

Camps are offered in several locations throughout the Greater Lafayette Region.
