TechXploration

High school sophomore girls from around the area are participating in TechXploration, a free summer camp at Middlesex County College, Edison. The four-week program involves designing, developing and constructing working models of rides found on fairgrounds to better understand science and technology. TechXploration concludes with "Competition Day," when teams' completed projects are exhibited and judged. Seen working on their model of a fairgrounds ride are (from left) Nazneen Shaikh, of South Brunswick, Ashley Mills, of Hightstown, Shruti Sharma, of Highland Park, and Taran Sayal, of East Brunswick.
