Missouri AHEC Science & Health (M*A*S*H) Camps

 

M*A*S*H Camps aim to spark an interest in healthcare and science prior to high school coursework.  M*A*S*H camps are two-day “hands-on” science and health summer day camps for students entering 6th, 7th, and 8th grades.  Instructors include health professionals, health educators, and faculty from area high schools and colleges.  Camp goals are to generate interest in science and healthcare careers, involve students in “hands-on” learning experiences and expose students to the variety of healthcare careers available.

 

Fees ($40) include 2-days of instruction, classroom materials, lunch & snacks, t-shirt, group photo and more.  Students participate in:   Chemistry/Biology Labs *  Scrub Labs  *  Emergency Medical Service demonstration  *  Hospital Tours  *  Healthcare Career Activities
