This summer camp took place at Vanderbilt University July 31st - August 4th.  Invited participants were 15 MLK Jr Magnet School rising HS Seniors and Juniors.  

The program will provides summer camp experience in Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) for high-school students.  
The goals of the program are to help students understand CPS, increase diversity and interest in CPS, improve teaching methods for delivering content in CPS curricula, and prepare students for related coursework in college. Specifically, the program will use simulation-based and experimental platforms of autonomous vehicles to demonstrate how fundamental concepts from computer science and engineering are integrated to develop operational and dependable systems.  
 

The long-term goals of this initiative include establishing (or building) a pipeline that targets highly-qualified students who are interested in CPS-related engineering disciplines.
