Year 12 – Griffith University Academic STEM Bootcamps
Griffith University have announced the opening of their Academic STEM Bootcamps applications. The bootcamps are designed to boost confidence and readiness in the days leading up to the external exams.
These Bootcamps are open to all students, but First Nations students from across Queensland are invited to put in an EOI for an all-inclusive Bootcamp experience — including sessions, flights (if needed), accommodation, meals, and fun.
What to Expect:
· Focused learning on campus during the days, guided by our teaching team – Maths Methods, General Maths, Chemistry, Biology, Physics, Psychology.
· Engaging afternoon activities and dedicated time to unwind after a full day of learning.
