Florida SouthWestern State College (FSW) is helping high school students explore future career pathways this summer through hands-on camps focused on artificial intelligence, drones, health care, video game design and other emerging industries.\n<\/p>\n

Running July 13-31, the camps are designed to introduce students to in-demand fields while building practical, career-focused skills through instruction led by FSW faculty experts. In addition to exploring emerging technologies and industries, students can strengthen skills in SAT preparation, college applications, social media and personal branding.\n<\/p>\n

\u201cStudents who attend our camps will strengthen problem-solving skills and be encouraged to think creatively and innovatively,\u201d said Adam Davis, professor of entrepreneurship. \u201cThrough hands-on experiences, students will learn how to develop ideas, test concepts, and build skills that support future academic and career success.\u201d<\/p>\n
