My son was accepted into both of these for this summer and can only choose one. NC State’s is discipline specific (his is aerospace engineering) for the entire week, while UAH’s is a general engineering camp. Both are a week. NC State’s is $800 while UAH’s is $600. He would have to fly to NC State while UAH is an hour and a half away by car. Has anyone done either of these engineering programs that could provide feedback regarding how organized they were, how interesting/hands on the program was etc?
He is most interested in focusing on the astro side of aerospace in college–hence, UAH is his top college choice. I believe NC State focuses more on aero. However, he really likes the discipline-specific approach of NC State’s summer engineering camp.
