Summer Camps

The Department of Telecommunication, Information Studies, and Media is offering several exciting summer camps in July. We offer media camps in digital cinema, television production, video game design, 3-D animation, and music recording.
All of our camps are available for high school students and we also offer our digital cinema and video game camps for middle schoolers. All of the high school camps are for students ages 14 to 18. The middle school camps are for students entering 7th or 8th grade in the Fall.
Each camp includes five full days of hands-on instruction by MSU personnel. All camps have a limited enrollment of 18 students and spots tend to fill up fast. The high school camps offer both an overnight/residential option in a dormitory on-campus and a day camp only option. The middle school camps are day-camps only. Each day runs 9am - 5pm plus evening activities for those staying overnight.
Students may participate in any individual camp. High school students may signup for multiple camps as long as one is in week 1 and the other is in week 2.
