LEAD Engineering Camp
LEAD Engineering is a three-week residential summer camp that exists to introduce students including underrepresented minorities with outstanding academic performance and demonstrated leadership skills to the field of engineering. LEAD Engineering is a national program, and U-M's LEAD Engineering is administered through the Multicultural Engineering Programs Office (MEPO).
CSE develops and delivers content for the electrical engineering and computer science portions of the camp. While at LEAD, students are able to engage in a substantial series of interactive studies of computer hardare and software.
