GirlTREC
The U of A College of Engineering is hosting its annual girls' transportation engineering summer day camp, GirlTREC, at the U of A campus July 8-12.
Since 2017, GirlTREC has been hosted by the Maritime Transportation Research and Education Center (MarTREC), a U.S. Department of Transportation University Center.
The GirlTREC camp is designed for rising sixth- and seventh-grade girls with a focus on hands-on activities related to transportation engineering.
