The 2020 University of Washington Bioengineering Summer Camp, held July 6-10 in Seattle, features hands-on activities for high school students who want to explore careers in bioengineering.

The UW Bioengineering Summer Camp will introduce students to how engineers can help people and design technologies for healthcare. This camp will broadly present bioengineering as a career and a major at UW. Daily activities will use hands-on activities to explore topics such as:

  • Targeted delivery of drugs within the body
  • Creation of medical tests & DNA detection
  • Scientific communication

The camp is open to rising freshmen through senior students.
