Here’s what some of our students had to say about the camp:
- Design challenge! Not only did it bring our team closer together, but it actually helped us work together better, especially under pressure and making tough decisions.
- I learned a lot about different areas in science, which school doesn’t really expose us to. I got to see the applications of scientific theory, connect with so many incredible professors, uni students, and people my age who are so intelligent. It was nice to learn from each other, work together to build on our common passion for science to make a project together. The hands-on experience makes so much of a difference in our understanding of a topic and the university itself. Thank you!
- The instructors were great with questions between lectures and labs
- It was really fun, I loved it
- Great fun
- I definitely learned a lot from my experience at SU 2013! Overall, many of the experiments and activities were fun and held my attention, especially the interactive ones.
- Was a great experience to see what many fields of science look like and what they do.
- Awesome experience! Met many new friends and professors.
- Loved all of the content that was covered and the instructions were very clear
- Great to apply math to something in real world
- Great to understand the purpose of computers in physics
- The coolest lesson of them all ~Physics session on Angry Birds
- Good representations of big scale events ~ Earth Sciences session
- Creating solar panels in groups [was] fun ~ Chemistry sessions
- The solar panel bit was my favorite. Very cool to create such technology.
- [The Physics session on chaos] showed us how the smallest changes can make a big difference
- Looking through the universe was captivating ~ Astronomy session
- The planetarium was an amazing experience ~ Astronomy session
- The coolest and most out of this world experience ~ Astronomy session
- Awesome x 2 ~ Astronomy session
- [In Atmospheric Physics session] I liked creating the spectrometer
- Cannot believe that light from different element produces different colour arrangement ~ Atmospheric Physics session
- Fun to work with actual instruments ~ Atmospheric Physics session
- [From the Green Energy session] I liked the sharing of green energy alternative ideas
- Battery+magnet+wire is very fun ~ Green Energy session
- Had a lot of fun collaborating and working with team mates ~ Design Challenge
- [The Design Challenge was a] great way to combine many scientific principles
- My favorite part of the week was the angry birds demonstration. It was interesting and a realistic version of our digital game
- the camp was great and the experience offered me a view into so many fields of science
- Fabulous
- It was really fun, I loved it
- It was a great opportunity to get exposed to different fields of science
- The overall experience was just as I had hoped and expected in most aspects
- What else is there to say but the camp was amazing
- Thank you for a great time at camp! The counsellors are all amazing, and made my time at the camp very fun.
- Thank you for the great camp!
