Students who want to be challenged and are entering fourth, fifth, and sixth grade who share an interest in science-based topics may attend UCA Challenge. This summer program is designed to offer students an exciting, hands-on curriculum. We believe all students want to be challenged.  UCA is ready to meet such an ambitious challenge with hands-on activities guaranteed to promote curiosity and fun.

Each course in the UCA Challenge program will be offered for approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes per day.

The program will begin at 8:30 AM and end at 2:30 PM. Morning drop-off and afternoon pick-up will be on the east side of the Lewis Science Center.

Students are encouraged to bring a backpack for their lunch and drinks. Class materials will be provided. A map of the university will be included in the registration packet to illustrate the drop-off and pick-up point for students.

You will receive an email confirming your registration.
