Operation Catapult: A summer program for high school students on the Rose-Hulman Campus

Operation Catapult Students  

It's not a summer camp. It's not an honors seminar. It's far from boring and you won't be cooped up in a classroom for days on end. It is Operation Catapult, a unique summer program for high school students who have completed their junior year. Our goal - beyond stimulating your brain of course - is to:

  1. Integrate and supplement your previous learning.
  2. Explore fundamental scientific and engineering principles and systems.
  3. Provide an opportunity for group living in a campus setting.
     

 What will you have to show for your time on the Rose-Hulman campus?

A once-in-a-lifetime experience! But what else can you expect?

  • Two and a half weeks of living at college and meeting students from across the country (and world)
  • To set up and run advanced experiments
  • To be taught by real professors
  • A chance to see what engineering and the physical sciences are really all about
  • To use every bit of learning and ingenuity you've absorbed in 11 years of school
  • To have a blast the whole time you're doing it!
