The Bourns College of Engineering at UC Riverside hosts a week-long STEM-focused Data Science Summer Camp from July 28 through August 1, 2025. The camp introduces high-school students to emerging Data Science and Artificial Intelligence fields to prepare them for engineering and science college careers and employment.

Campers will learn Data Science (DS) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) fundamentals. The immersive, custom-designed curriculum includes guided, hands-on lab exercises focused on data extraction, visualization, understanding, and real-world applications. The program will start with essential DS and AI concepts and introductions to Python programming, followed by critical applications.

Allowing students to explore Data Science and Artificial Intelligence is one of the most rewarding aspects of teaching at UC Riverside. Summer camps broaden students' knowledge of the far-reaching impacts of engineering and science while helping them narrow their field of study before they even set foot on a university campus.
