Keith Stansbury, head of the Clark College CAD/Engineering Applications department, helps students launch rockets during SEMI High Tech U last week. The program targets 14- to 17-year-old students who have an interest in high-tech fields.

When Camas High School student Garrett Wilgus heard about a three-day opportunity to explore science and math careers, he was eager to learn.

“I thought this would be a great opportunity to find out whether I’m really interested in the industry and see if it would be the right opportunity for me,” he said.
