During each week campers can earn one college credit in the following programming languages: Java, C++ or Python. Campers attending camp for two weeks can earn one or two credits. For example, the Fairfield University transcript will read: Engineering Independent Study: Java. Campers’ progress is closely monitored throughout the week by the camp director.
