ECO Girls
ECO Girls is a project providing Environmental and Cultural Opportunities for Girls in urban Southeast Michigan. The project was founded in 2011 by a humanities professor who sought to connect a concern for the pressing environmental issues of our time with a desire to promote the positive development of girls in urban centers. The project especially aims to reach girls of color and girls in economically challenged areas whose neighborhoods too often become depositories for environmental waste but whose communities are left out of strategic planning for a future that will be affected by resource depletion and global climate change.
While engaging girls in a program of fun and exploration, ECO Girls applies an environmental humanities framework to link environmental issues to the cultural meanings of daily life. The project draws connections between the group histories, community values, and expressive cultures of girls and the environment we all share to foster ecological awareness and critical environment…

RobotC for Girls is a one-week, day program for students who will complete grades 8-12 in June 2013.
The camp introduces students to computer programming in a fun and supportive environment. RobotC for Girls campers will program Lego Mindstorm robots using RobotC programming language. This is the language that many high school FIRST Robotics Competition teams use. UM's Engineering 101, a required course for engineering students, uses C++ which is quite similar to C. The number of campers is limited to 20.
The camp is planned and taught by University of Michigan faculty, staff and students. In addition to hands-on activities, campers will participate in fun group competitions, will tour dynamic UM labs, Google, and the UM campus and will talk with UM students in science and engineering majors.
Our campers are chaperoned by WISE camp staff at all times.
RobotC for Girls is sponsored by the University of Michigan, Women in Science and Engineering (WISE) Program and by Google.
