Worcester Polytechnic Institute has partnered with the Materials Information Society to create ASM Materials Camp New England, an outreach program intended to interest high school students in STEM fields. To improve the efficacy of this program, information from participant surveys, personal observations, and interviews with organizers was summarized and analyzed. Recommendations identifying potential improvements for the program and the evaluation process were generated. These suggestions may be utilized in future camps to interest a greater number of students in STEM.
