The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga is preparing for another summer filled with opportunities for local K-12 students through a variety of summer camps. Ranging from quantum computing to learning the proper basketball jump-shot technique, the camps are designed to keep students engaged during the holiday break.
Camps are available for elementary, middle and high school students, with options ranging from full-day experiences to weeklong programs and focused clinics designed to help campers sharpen their skills and try something new.
Many programs are led by UTC faculty and staff or hosted in partnership with partnering organizations. The camps have the same goal of giving students an opportunity to connect with UTC through their interests.
