Codelab: Build, Learn, Create

The Summer Enrichment Academy (SEA) at UMBC offers middle and high school students a unique, engaging, and intellectually stimulating experience. With a diverse range of one-week workshops and courses, SEA immerses students in the world of science, engineering, technology, the arts, and humanities—all led by UMBC faculty, industry professionals, and graduate students.

SEA's college-style experiences are designed to inspire students to think critically, work collaboratively, and challenge themselves in ways they won’t find anywhere else.

"Codelab" is your chance to dive into the exciting world of programming, where creativity meets technology. This course is designed especially for middle school students who love solving puzzles, experimenting with ideas, and making things that work. Starting from the basics, you’ll learn how to use code to build projects you can actually use, making technology feel approachable and exciting. Imagine showing off your own mini-programs to friends and family, knowing you created them from scratch!
