Applied Career Exploration in STEM (ACES) Camp for Girls is a 4-day summer camp for 50 middle school girls designed for them to explore a wide variety of careers, provide a path to potential success, and spark their interest in high education in the STEM fields. ACES stresses teamwork, use of technology, and hands-on learning, while giving students a feel for the college experience at a critical time in their lives.

ACES Camp for Girls sparks interest in high education through teamwork activities and hands-on learning. After running for over a decade, the program has had more than 300 participants.  Some camp alumni are now Raytheon engineers, scientists, and interns. One is even a co-coordinator of the camp now!  ACES focuses on the importance of math, science and careers in technical sciences and stresses that there are no careers that are only for men.
