As part of the outreach, TRIO Summer of Code event offers a five-week intensive coding camp to TRIO high school participants. The camp strives to fulfill the goals of the Department of Education to help students master key prerequisites in math and computer science to ensure success in all STEM fields, particularly computer science. During the course of the camp our students are presented with building-block skills aimed at supporting the development of proficiency in the foundations of computing and computer programming.
