Summer Isn’t Complete without Tech Camp!
Step into Summer at New England Tech! Our day camps are open to students entering 8th through 12th grade* and feature a variety of exciting topics for campers to explore. Aside from fun summer days alongside their peers, campers will come away with a foundational skill set they can utilize throughout high school and beyond.
Taught by New England Tech’s industry-leading faculty, each day camp runs from 9am – 2pm daily at one of NEIT’s campuses in Rhode Island. Campers learn in the same facilities and labs as our college students, ensuring they learn new skills and see what it’s like to learn in a college setting!
Day camps will run in 2 sessions (6/24/24 – 6/28/24 and 7/08/24 – 7/11/24).
