WiSTEM Summer Day Camps

About CEO Day Camps

Consider Every Option (CEO) day camps are on-campus, one-day (9:00 a.m. – 5:30 p.m. CT), themed summer camps designed for students going into 10th grade through 12th grade of high school who have an interest in science, technology, engineering or math (STEM).

The day camps are designed for participants to consider every option (CEO) and explore cross-sections of STEM disciplines and college majors with similar or overlapping career paths.

Students will learn about STEM majors offered at UT Austin, experience STEM through hands-on design challenges, explore STEM through on-campus tours, and connect with STEM college students, faculty and industry professional role models. Spots are limited for each day camp so early registration is encouraged.

CEO camps include theme-specific tours, STEM role model panels and presentations,
and hands-on activities that connect students to theme-aligned STEM majors and
career pathways.

Capacity is capped at 30 students per camp. All genders welcome.
