Join ARCTIC for a one-week summer camp workshop focused on agentic AI, data analytics and Internet of Things (IoT), created for high school students and undergraduates who are curious about how intelligent technologies are transforming research, industry and everyday life. As autonomous systems, data-driven decision-making and robotics continue to shape fields ranging from healthcare and engineering to finance and environmental science, developing an early understanding of these tools provides both perspective and preparation. This program offers participants the opportunity to explore not only how these systems work, but why they matter.

Through a structured blend of shared morning lectures and focused afternoon project tracks, students will build a strong conceptual foundation in intelligent systems while gaining practical experience in a specialized area of interest. The camp emphasizes critical thinking, problem formulation, data literacy and computational reasoning, skills that extend well beyond a single technology or programming language. Participants will learn how data becomes insight, how AI systems make decisions and how software interacts with the physical world through IoT, all within a collaborative and supportive environment.

 June 8 - June 12, 2026, 9 a.m. - 5.30 p.m.

By the end of the program, students will have developed a clearer understanding of the role intelligent technologies play in modern society, strengthened their analytical and technical abilities, and gained experience working on meaningful, hands-on projects. Whether they pursue careers in science, engineering, medicine, business or policy, the habits of mind cultivated during this camp, thoughtful inquiry, systematic problem-solving and responsible innovation, will remain valuable long after the summer concludes.

Join us to acquire practical skills that will not only enrich your academic experience but also empower you in the ever-evolving landscape of professional opportunities.

Workshop registration includes a $200 participation fee, which covers meals, workshop materials and necessary supplies throughout the program. Please note that parking is not included in this fee and will need to be arranged separately. This contribution ensures that all participants have access to the resources and support needed for a productive and engaging experience. Limited financial assistance is available to students with demonstrated need. As funding is restricted, applicants requesting support must submit a letter of recommendation along with a brief essay explaining their financial circumstances and why assistance is necessary. All requests will be carefully reviewed, and support will be awarded based on both need and available resources.
