2012 Eisenman Materials Camp Lab

This video - published on ASM's YouTube channel - takes a quick tour of the Eisenman Materials Science camp, ASM's longest ongoing summer student camp. Since this camp was first run more than a decade ago now, the program has expanded to more than twenty-five student camp around the country.

The camps are largely run by volunteers and see the students broken up into five- and six-student teams who then work on a single project for the week under the supervision of an industry mentor/expert. It makes for a spectacular introduction to the world of materials science for the students who get to attend.

Check out the full camp schedule and start thinking about which of your students should be attending these entirely free camps.
