North Carolina State University College of Design
Design Camp is an annual summer design program offered to high school
students at NC State University College of Design. Since its inception over
24 years ago, Design Camp has exposed more than 2,500 high school students
to the exciting world of design. Design Camp informs students about college
study in design and raises awareness of the impact of art and design through
a series of weeklong summer programs. In 2007, Design Camp became an
outreach program of CAM (Contemporary Art Museum). CAM joined the College of
Design in February 2006, becoming the lead component in the college’s Art +
Design in the Community Initiative. Design Camp projects challenge students
to explore their creativity and critical-thinking skills while pushing them
to try a range of techniques and media. The exploration of the design
process teaches students to question, make choices, generate alternatives,
work collaboratively and ultimately broaden their understanding of the world
around them.
Camp participants work with camp faculty on projects involving each of the
following design disciplines: architecture, landscape architecture,
industrial design, art + design and graphic design. In addition to studio
projects, students participate in other activities all aimed at stimulating
their creativity and broadening their understanding of the design field.
Design Camp is for:
High school students eager to learn more about design in a college
environment
Beginners interested in developing skills and creativity through hands-on
experiences
Teens wanting to meet other high school students who enjoy art & design from
around the state and country
Young artists and designers serious about preparing portfolios for art and
design college admission
In 2010, we will offer two different camp formats for high school students.
Design Camp Overnight and Design Camp Day.

AFRICAN-AMERICAN STUDENTS ARE NOT APPLYING!
Even if you do not have a college-aged child at home, please share this
with someone who does.
Though there are a number of companies and organizations that have donated
monies for scholarships to be used by African-Americans, a great deal of the
money is being returned because of a lack of interest. No one is going to
knock on our doors and ask if we can use a scholarship. Take the initiative
to get your children involved. There is no need for money to be returned to
donating companies because we fail to apply for it.
Please pass this information on to family members, friends, etc. We must
get the word out that money is available. If you are a college student or
getting ready to become one, you probably already know how useful additional
money can be. Our youth really could use these scholarships. Thanks! (If
