Does your child have dreams of building skyscrapers or bridges? At Structural Engineering Summer Camp at Hofstra University campers, entering grades 6-11, learn from Hofstra University Ph.D. professors who introduce the fascinating fundamentals of constructing structural elements, including columns, beams, cables and arches.Campers gain an understanding of the fundamental concepts of structural engineering from college instructors while studying great works, such as the George Washington Bridge and the Eiffel Tower.

Combine Learning and Fun
Short lectures will present not only the scientific aspects of bridges and buildings, but also the social and symbolic aspects of these structures. Hands-on exercises will enable students to gain a physical understanding of how structural elements behave. Workshops will provide students with the opportunity to build their own physical models of long-spanning roof structures.
