2025 Summer Camps
Events calendar | North Oshawa Location
Ontario Tech University’s 2025 Summer Camps program provides fun, hands-on opportunities for children (age 6 to 17) to learn and explore their curiosity in a positive and safe educational environment. Our mission is to inspire kids to see STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) everywhere in the world around them. Hands-on activities and curriculum-based learning in robotics, coding, gaming, and much more, provide an experience that is both educational and fun. We succeed when our campers leave camp thinking that STEM is exciting and within their reach – that it could be part of their future.For more information, click here.Camps run each week in July and August, on weekdays from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., with different camps offered each week.
