A camp participant learns about coding and robotics during a hands-on session presented by Trident Technical College (TTC) as part of the seventh annual Girls Day Out (GDO) at College of Charleston. More than 100 girls from four Lowcountry school districts attended the camp, hosted by SPAWAR Systems Center (SSC) Atlantic in collaboration with TTC via Cyber Secure, College of Charleston, Bosch, Naval Health Clinic Charleston, Paul Mitchell the School Charleston, and NUCOR Steel Berkeley. GDO is a camp designed to promote science, technology, engineering, and mathematics career fields to rising eighth and ninth grade girls with the goal of showcasing the diverse options available in the workforce following high school. SSC Atlantic develops, acquires and provides life cycle support for command, control, communications, computer, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (C4ISR) systems, information technology and space capabilities. A leading-edge Navy engineering center, SSC Atlantic designs, builds, tests, fields and supports many of the finest frontline C4ISR systems in use today, and those being planned for the future.
