Missouri Military Academy Cadet Blake Krull ’25 from Fenton, Missouri, and Cadet Josiah Emminger ’27 from Mexico, Missouri, are the 2024 recipients of the Missouri S&T Jackling Institute: Introduction to Engineering Camp scholarships. The cadets were selected for the scholarships due to their academic achievements, curiosity and interest in the STEM field. 

At Missouri S&T’s oldest and largest summer camp, Cadets Krull and Emminger will be introduced to a variety of engineering fields and participate in engaging demonstrations and hands-on activities. 

At camp, the cadets will have the opportunity to learn about engineering disciplines from leaders in the field while studying alongside their peers from across the nation. Through interactive workshops, aerospace testing and problem-solving, exploration of state-of-the-art engineering materials breakthroughs, department visits, student competitions and more, they will gain practical engineering experience and learn more about what engineers do, the tools they use and how their work affects everyday life.
