CAMP FACILITIES: We have state-of-the-art computer labs and lecture project space where students can work and collaborate to express their creativity through their projects.

CAMP PROGRAM INFO: This camp is inspired by an older camp, Camp CAEN, that was very successful. It was stopped when it's director retired and now a new camp is reviving the same spirit that established Camp CAEN in the community. Recreational activities are planned to give campers a unique blend of the college experience, the University of Michigan campus, and a taste of Ann Arbor city. These activities include meals at the dorms, campus tours, and field trips to local tech companies.

CAMP SCHOLARSHIPS OR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE: Partial scholarships available for students who would be unable to attend without a scholarship. Scholarship applications are available on our website: Our Camp Website Link: mibytes.eecs.umich.edu
