Each of our camps are high-energy, hands-on learning, and include a broad exposure to a variety of topics in science, engineering, technology and math (STEM).
York University's Spark Lab Programs are week-long sessions designed for students in grades 9 to 12 who want more hands-on science. Using experiment-based learning, students explore physics, biology, chemistry and coding through lab work. Escape the traditional classroom and learn science by doing science. Programs run from 9:30am to 3:30pm daily, for four- or five-days depending on the week. Each session will allow participants to be involved in hands-on experiments, participate in mentor visits, and experience working in a university environment.
Throughout this intensive program, participants will embark on a fascinating journey into the depths of human and animal biology. Through a blend of interactive lectures, laboratory experiments, and hands-on dissections, we will delve into key physiological concepts. Hands-on dissections will provide invaluable opportunities to examine the anatomical features of organs like the heart, brain, and musculoskeletal system, fostering a deeper understanding of their structure-function relationships. Investigate the effects of different stimuli on muscle contraction, exploring the physiology of the nervous system through sensory perception tests, and more. Participants will develop a profound appreciation for the complexity of the human body and gain practical skills in laboratory techniques and anatomical exploration.
