Parent Info for Camp CAEN

Camp CAEN presents an exciting opportunity for your child. This is a place where magic begins and brings together people and technology. Campers come together in their common interests, and also connect with U-M engineering student mentors. Our staff also usually includes PhD candidates in computer engineering who help out with the advanced classes. Many students return to camp year after year. In fact, several of our former students are now instructors!
