HOUSTON (May 29, 2024) – A series of HCC summer camps in June and July seeks to introduce middle and high school students to the latest technologies and areas of IT studies.
The camps will be offered at four HCC campuses – Katy, North Forest, Eastside and Missouri City – with topics covering graphic design and AI-generated arts, coding with AI and robotics, and cybersecurity.
“Artificial intelligence has really exploded on the scene and there’s a big job market emerging from AI,” said Raymond Keller, HCC computer networking instructor. “The camps will be highlighting some of these new and expanding areas.”
The weeklong camps include:
- June 10 – 14 at HCC Katy campus, 22910 Colonial Parkway in Katy, on graphic design and AI-generated arts.
