Frequently Asked Questions
How do I register for a program?
Select your preferred programs by clicking "Add" next to the camp week or workshop date you wish to attend. You can include multiple sessions in your cart before proceeding to checkout.
What's the difference between a camp and a workshop?
Summer Camps (Ages 10-14) are week-long, full-day programs offered during the summer, focused on immersive biotech exploration. Optional after-care is available until 6:00 pm.
GENIUS 1-Day Workshops (Ages 12-16) are short, targeted sessions that take place on Saturdays throughout the year. Each workshop focuses on a single biotechnology technique such as CRISPR gene editing or infectious disease diagnostics, offering in-depth exploration of lab methods, real-world applications, and scientific reasoning.
What are the hours for summer camps?
Metro Prep Camps run as weekly sessions throughout July and August.
