Middle School Students Learn About Energy at the EMS Energy Institute

The EMS Energy Institute in conjunction with the Eberly College of Science recently held an energy camp for kids in grades five through eight to explore energy topics. About 30 students participated in the camp, which the EMS Energy Institute held for the first time.

The Energy Institute participates in numerous summer camps sponsored by The College of Earth and Mineral Sciences and university organizations such as Women in Science and Engineering (WISE). Demonstrations and workshops on energy-related themes are presented to middle and high school students. Topics such as fuel cells, biofuel utilization, air pollution, hybrid vehicles, how electricity is generated, diesel engines and more are presented.
