Each summer, Cal State East Bay hosts dozens of students from Contra Costa County for a weeklong engineering and construction management program called Discover Engineering! The camp, sponsored by Chevron and Marathon Petroleum, is designed to introduce students to the idea of engineering and pursuing college after high school. Throughout the week, campers stay at the university dorms, take field trips in the community to various places where engineers work, and on the final day, demonstrate the skills they’ve learned by building and testing the model bridges and robots they've built.
