Northcentral Technical College, in partnership with Engineering Tomorrow is sponsoring an Engineering STEM camp to explore the field of engineering. Students will participate in hands-on instructional labs to ignite curiosity about the engineering process. Each day, the students will receive cutting-edge instruction led by professional engineers.
NTC’s LEGO Mindstorms is designed for students who are ready to bring robots to life!
Using LEGO Mindstorms, campers will design, build, and program their own robots to complete exciting challenges. Along the way, students will learn the fundamentals of robotics, problem-solving, teamwork, and logical thinking — all in a fun, hands-on environment.
No coding experience? Perfect! This camp is built for beginners and curious creators alike. By the end of the week, students will have programmed real robots and discovered how technology powers the world around them.
NTC’s Python Code Academy is built for students who want to explore the world of coding and software development.
Campers will learn the foundations of Python — one of the most widely used programming languages in the world — while building interactive programs, solving real-world problems, and exploring how coding connects to careers in technology, data, cybersecurity, and artificial intelligence.
Whether students are brand new to coding or have experimented before, this camp challenges them to think logically, solve problems creatively, and build something they’re proud of. No prior experience required.

During this camp our NTC welding faculty member will lead the students through hands-on activities in the areas of welding, engineering and machine tool. The students will tour a local manufacturer, hear from role models working in the industry, and create a project they can be proud of. The camp wraps up with a celebration where students can showcase what they’ve learned and created.
Nitro-X Automotive Summer Camp is designed to introduce middle school students to transportation careers. Students will work with NTC faculty, staff, and industry professionals to prepare, paint, and customize a remote-control car using the same materials and techniques used in the collision repair industry. Throughout the week, students will learn about various transportation careers through hands-on activities, field trips to dealerships and auto shops, and will prepare the car for the final race day.
This advanced clinical course requires the student to integrate concepts from all previous courses in the management of groups of clients facing complex health alterations. Students will have the opportunity to further develop critical thinking skills using the nursing process in making clinical decisions. Continuity of care through interdisciplinary collaboration is emphasized.
