Encourages Learning of New Technology

STEM introduces students to the impeccable and vast field of technology and innovation. If you are tech-savvy or hold a special inclination towards technical learning, in the STEM field you will constantly encounter new technology, and likely embrace them. Furthermore, you can gain a clear picture of the global landscape, it’s working, need of the hour, and witness how the world is moving toward becoming a tech-centred globe

Adaptability to Changes

Whether you are introduced to the field at an early phase or later, a passion for STEM assists in making one more adaptable to the changing scenarios of the world. STEM teaches one to build a problem-solving perspective, examine the problem at hand, and through methodology attempt to come up with an appropriate solution. It also adapts one to newer concepts and the latest information and research. STEM is constantly evolving.

Building Experimental Learning

Technological advancement is completely impossible without a risk-taking mind that is inclined through experimental learning, as has been witnessed by most of the technological advancements that have occurred over the years. Learning STEM encourages you to build a scientifically inclined attitude, thereby helping you to experiment and take risks in learning new activities.

The London International Youth Science Forum events are designed to meet the necessities of present-day innovative learning. Participation in science tours and visits can help all students who are wanting to pursue their careers in all STEM fields and gain a proper insight and outlook on the subjects. You are also guided on participating in STEM competitions on the regional and national levels thereby building your exposure to the field. Our STEM Learning Programme in the UK offers all participants an in-depth and detailed experience of learning, and exposure to the STEM curriculum in addition to other programmes. This structured programme looks to build, as well as strengthen transferable skills.

What Benefits Do STEM Summer Camps Offer?

STEM learning is the most important need of our time. With civilization becoming ever more dependent on science and technology for their everyday needs, newer and ground-breaking innovations are coming up all the time. Therefore, we need future scientists and engineers to manage, research and develop new technologies to keep up with the growing demand for humankind.

STEM summer camps are one of the most effective ways to reinvigorate the inner curiosity of young students. These camps allow students to explore, build, repair, and bring out their inner engineers and scientists. They are able to learn the various domains of STEM in a fun and engaging manner, which motivates them to take up STEM as a future career.

Let’s discuss some of the benefits that our STEM summer camp offers:

Acquire and Advance Basic STEM Skills

It is not uncommon to see schools struggling to have the required infrastructure to provide well-rounded STEM education to students. Many students studying in these schools have immense interest in STEM but may not be able to find the right outlet to explore their interests.

By choosing to attend a renowned international STEM summer camp, the students will get to learn from qualified experts in a comprehensive and safe setting and can acquire college-level academic abilities that will profit them all through their time at school and beyond. As these summer schools regularly instruct in a more experiential manner than conventional schools, students get to be involved in the learning cycle and learn newer skills in a more profound way.

The LIYSF STEM summer camp is a great place for students to foster their innate curiosity in the sciences while presenting as well as leadership skills. They will get the opportunity to participate in real-world experiments and projects, and develop skills that would help them both socially and academically.

For instance, if a student has an interest in robotics and AI, then our science camp would provide a platform for the student to explore the future in these fields and turn their interest into something more tangible.

Gain Academic and Social Confidence

Quite possibly the most reported advantage of going to STEM summer camp is the confidence it gives such countless young students. As students spend their summer away from home, in a supportive and fun-filled learning environment, with their friends and other like-minded students, they will develop certain confidence academically as well as socially.

The skills that they develop during such a summer experience are truly far-reaching. They will not only gain the confidence to choose a career in the sciences but also pursue it enthusiastically.

Gain Competitive Advantage

With university admissions becoming ever more competitive, students now need to stand out from the crowd while submitting their applications. Getting a good grade in school, and participating in extracurricular and volunteering activities just don’t seem to be sufficient anymore.

Students who decide to spend their summers visiting state-of-the-art STEM research facilities, and meet industry professionals and other international students, all while showing immense enthusiasm for learning, are generally favoured by college admission boards. These qualities show the student’s eagerness to learn and stand out from their peers, and the skills they gain during the summer school experience would also give them an advantage during admission interviews.

 Exploring the Various Career Paths

We employ cutting-edge education technology to effectively provide the necessary knowledge to students, whatever their interests. As students improve their STEM abilities, by attending the comprehensive lectures during our STEM Education programme, they will be able to learn how to use these skills for a future career. Meeting other students sharing similar interests, and interacting with various industry professionals, helps cement their interest in pursuing a STEM-based career

Several surveys are pointing to the fact that there is a shortage of applicants for STEM-based jobs. These jobs pay significantly more money than other non-tech careers. There are an endless number of STEM careers to choose from, and participating in our summer school would give the students a head-start towards a brighter and better future

Meeting New People

A lot of times, we see bright and curious students unable to express themselves because none of their friends at school shares their interests. At LIYSF, the student would get an outlet to immerse themselves in a fun environment with other students who share their passions.

They can learn and interact with other students with similar interests, which can lead to long-term friendships. These can lead the students to further explore their passion, which can lead to startling discoveries and endless positive effects on their lives.

Develop Social and Cultural Maturity

While developing a good understanding of the culture of different people might not be the first priority when it comes to deciding on whether or not to attend a STEM summer camp, such maturity will be helpful to students in the future when they visit different countries and meet people from diverse backgrounds as part of their job.

Summer schools enable students from different nationalities to work together under one roof and allow them to learn about each other’s culture, religion, education, politics, and general thinking. Students will learn to perceive the world around them with more relevance and develop much-needed social tolerance.

Promote Physical Activity

With ready access to computers and smartphones, more and more students end up spending a lot of their time indoors, rather than playing some outdoor sport with friends. STEM summer camps do their part in promoting outdoor learning and activities that encourage students to partake in sporting and other outdoor events. These help the students develop teamwork and communication skills, all while boosting their confidence.
