This science lab camp is for young people aged between 16 and 18 years old who have an interest in science.
It is a fantastic opportunity to gain hands-on experience in a variety of laboratory skills and techniques.

It may be of particular interest to students hoping to pursue a career in biochemistry, medicine, pharmacy, marine biology or other disciplines with a focus on laboratory techniques.
You will spend your week at one of our field centre’s and experience working in an industrial standard laboratory.

You will be working in teams to complete workplace-linked science investigations exploring sampling and analytical techniques.

Lab work will be combined with adventurous outdoor activities. This will allow you to develop your problem-solving, effective communication and team working skills. These are all essential for those wishing to pursue a career in science.
