EPIC - Elementary Program Introducing Computing

Robotic & AI Explorer:

We've updated our successful in-house robotics program to include an introduction to AI. Students will build and program robots on different platforms, such as LEGO, to tackle simulated real-world challenges. They'll also explore basic AI concepts relevant to robotics, such as how machines learn and make decisions. The program is designed to spark creativity in young students while introducing them to the fundamentals of computing and AI, and showing how these technologies impact our daily lives. Students will work together, make friends, and create their own robots from day one. No prior programming experience is required. The program includes both indoor and outdoor activities, and lunch is included in the registration fee.

Physical Computing with Raspberry Pi:

Join us for a camp full of fun with Raspberry Pi! Explore the world of computer science through hands-on projects, where you'll collaborate with others, make new friends, and dive into electronics, sensors, and programmable devices. Learn to build hardware that senses and controls the world around you, bringing your ideas to life with Raspberry Pi. Prior programming experience is recommended. The program includes both indoor and outdoor activities, and lunch is included in the registration fee. Plus, each camper will receive a complete Raspberry Pi 5 Starter Kit (valued at $150), which they get to keep after the camp!

Click the '+' on the registration block(s) to enroll. Review the Online Registration Instructions before enrolling for the best outcome. This includes instructions for creating a Family or Student/Individual account.

Family Accounts are recommended for enrolling multiple children from one family in any UNH Youth Program. If you already have an account in our system, you will be asked to log into either a Family or Student Account after adding the program to your shopping cart. Be sure to use the username and password for the type of account you wish to log into. We recommend attempting to log into the Student or Family account before enrollment opens as this will minimize difficulty and time while enrolling. Email youth.programs@emeieme.com if you require assistance recovering your account information. Do not create a new account if you have one already.

If you don't have an account already, you can set up an account at any time, even before you begin the registration process. If creating a student account, the account profile should be in the name of the participating student, but the email should be that of a parent/guardian. Review the Online Registration Instructions before creating a new account.

UNH has partnered with CampDoc to quicken the enrollment process. Enrollments and payments are done here through our current enrollment system, but no registration questions will be required at that time. Within a few days of enrolling, the email provided in the student or family account will receive an email prompting completion of the registration questions.

Please note that overnight camp roommate requests are done during the CampDoc process, not at the time of enrollment.

It is important that a parent/guardian responds to the CampDoc email and completes the registration questions promptly. Families who enrolled a child in a UNH Youth Program in Summer 2023 or after will likely already have a CampDoc account. Even if the student already has a CampDoc account, a parent/guardian should log into the student's account each time they enroll in a program to review and complete any necessary questions for a program or year.

All registration questions must be 100% complete in CampDoc before a student can attend a youth program. 

For more information, including the CampDoc Support Line, review our CampDoc page.
