Bio-Medical Engineering Immersion at the STEM Center of Excellence

Have you ever wondered how doctors interpret the output of an electrocardiogram? How about building an electrocardiograph yourself so you can find out! Biomedical engineering is not just about understanding medicine; it’s also about having the engineering skills to create the tools doctors use every day to help diagnose, treat, and assist patients. Explore this diverse STEM field through fun, hands-on activities and interactive breakout sessions with experts from around the world, including a full day in Scottish Rite Hospital’s Movement Science Lab; then, make new friends and explore Texas culture with exciting evening events including a visit to the world renowned Perot Museum, enjoy our state of the art ropes course, archery and aquatics center, a Dallas sporting event and a star gazing party on top of our Observation Tower! This week-long, fun-filled and STEM immersive experience will be held at the Girl Scouts of Northeast Texas STEM Center of Excellence in Dallas, Texas.
