About
Week-long science camps run by the University of Helsinki's science education team on its own campuses. Kids crack science mysteries with experiments and puzzles, code their own games, play with math, or help a fictional professor uncover a lost fantasy world through humanities research. Groups are small, about 20 kids. UniJunior also runs Swedish-language camps. Places are drawn by lottery, so applying on day one gives no edge.
