iD Tech Camps

Hands-on STEM camps at 150+ university campuses — coding, game design, AI, and robotics

iD Tech is what you choose when you want your kid to come home transformed, not just educated. The university campus setting, talented instructors, and immersive project-based curriculum create a week that kids talk about for years. The price is steep, but for a motivated 10–15 year old, one iD Tech week often sparks a genuine lifelong passion for technology.

  • Broad STEM tracks: Python, Java, game design, AI, robotics, 3D printing, filmmaking

✕ Cons

  • Expensive — one week costs as much as a year of self-paced software
