Why UC Science Summer Camp?
UC Science Summer听Camp is about helping students make the best decisions for their future. The transition from school to university can be hard 鈥 there are so many options to choose from and decisions to be made.听
That鈥檚 why we started this camp. We want to give students a real taste of university life and let them experience first-hand what studying science at UC is like 鈥 so they can make informed decisions for their future.

What鈥檚 on offer
During their visit, students will be completely immersed in UC life. They鈥檒l get to experience the full scope of science on offer at UC 鈥 from lectures and lab work to field trips and the latest technologies. Of course, university life is not all about study. There will also be social activities听鈥 including听experiencing the new and vibrant Christchurch CBD,听 and time to hang out with like-minded students and get a feel for the campus.
