Austin Peay State University will once again host its Data Science Camp in Summer 2026, with half-day sessions beginning on June 1, 2026.
The camp, designed for rising 4th-8th graders, will be a half-day (1:30 p.m. - 4:30 p.m.), weeklong day camp focused on statistics and other data sciences-related topics.
The camp will provide campers with the opportunity to participate in fun, hands-on group activities that introduce them to the limitless world of data.  Campers will learn how to collect and unlock insights from data, appreciate the power of data syntax while building confidence and awareness in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) skills.
Campers will also learn critical thinking, problems solving, teamwork and approach challenges like a data sleuth by asking the right questions, collecting information, analyzing data and displaying results.
Students will:

• Collect and record data using standard and non-standard measurements.
• Display data through tables, charts, and graphs.
• Identify trends, patterns and draw comparisons from data.
• Make data driven predictions.
• Present data insights.
• Some of the camp activities include exploring the proportion of flying helicopters, tree age exploration, skittle colors, movie rating analysis etc.
