IHMC 2026 Summer Robotics Camp for Rising 9th and 10th Graders

Join us for hands-on fun with Robotics and STEM.

IHMC’s 2026 Summer Robotics Camp offers students the opportunity to learn about robotics and computer programming. This camp is for students currently in 8th and 9th grade (going into 9th and 10th grade in the fall). Camp activities will feature programming and robotics with LEGO Mindstorms. Students will further develop teamwork skills, confidence in problem solving, and STEM creativity. Campers will hear several short presentations about state-of-the-art research at IHMC, and they will have the opportunity to eat lunch with an IHMC research scientist, in small groups. They will also be invited to tour IHMC's world-renowned robotics lab.

No prior experience with programming or robotics is required - each student will work at their own pace.

The camp fee is $225. Camp fees may be paid by credit card or by check. Reservations are not complete until payment is received. Full financial assistance may be available for qualified candidates, based on need. Because of limited capacity, priority will be given to students who have not atttended in prior years. Lunch is optional, and can be added for $45 - or students can bring their own lunch. For those receiving financial assistance, lunch will be included at no cost.

Camp will take place June 15-18, 9:00 am to 3 pm at IHMC in downtown Pensacola. This is a STEM camp - join us if you're interested in STEM or curious whether a hands-on STEM camp would be fun for you. Robotics and programming are super engaging and enjoyable.
