High school students prepare for the future

Abstract:
Central Westmoreland Career and Technology Center today is hosting a hands-on camp aimed at discussing recent advancements in nanotechnology.

The camp will explore nanotechnology's impact on the sciences, the real world, and how studying it can prepare students for a career in the field.

Technical school and program graduate, Jamie G. Houseknecht of Penn State University is presenting the camp.
