STEM RESOURCES
DEVCOM C5ISR Center works to bring Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) into sharper focus for students and provide direction and awareness of what work in the technology fields entails. A few of these opportunities include:
MATH AND SCIENCE CAMP
The C5ISR Center Math & Science Summer Program is a one-week session (Monday through Friday from 8:30 AM to 3:30 PM) that enhances your child’s interest in STEM through a fun, hands on approach based on how today’s students learn science. The curriculum for each session revolves around observation, questioning, and designing solutions using engineering and technology. All programs are taught by state-certified teachers, and are hosted at the Harford Glen Environmental Education Center in Bel Air, MD. The C5ISR Center Math and Science Camp is designated as a camp in “good standing” by the license board of the Maryland Department and Health and Mental Hygiene (DHMH).
Please be sure to visit us December 2026 for information about the 2027 C5ISR Center Math and Science Summer Camp season.
Engineering the Future: 2026 Summer STEM Adventures
5th and 6th Grade Flight and Rocketry:
Students spent the week exploring aviation and rocketry through hands-on activities ranging from model rocket launches and air‑pressure experiments to aerodynamics challenges and Newton’s Laws demonstrations. The program culminated with advanced bottle‑rocket launches and visits from local soldiers who shared real‑world STEM applications.
7th and 8th Grade STEM in Pop Culture:
Students spent the week sharpening their engineering communication skills, exploring real-world science through superhero-inspired experiments, and designing complex Rube Goldberg machines. The program wrapped up with energy innovations, a simulated Apollo 13 crisis mission, and conversations with local soldiers about STEM careers.
9th and 10th Grade Natural Disasters:
Students spent the week exploring how engineers respond to natural forces by designing earthquake‑resistant structures, creating water filtration and flood‑defense systems, and engineering solutions to extreme weather and volcanic activity. The week concluded with bridge testing, disaster‑communication lessons, and visits from soldiers who shared real‑world STEM applications.
