The University of Indianapolis MICI- AHEC center operates different summer camps for youngsters passionate about health-related careers. At camp, your child will have plenty of opportunities to explore diverse medical fields and pick whatever path interests them.
The physical and occupational therapy (OT) camps are for high-school students interested in becoming therapists in the future. Participants can learn what it takes to succeed in therapy and increase their odds of breaking into the industry.
The Doctor Camp welcomes teenagers dreaming of a career in medicine and healthcare. Participants between 5th and 8th-grade can receive instruction on the experience and education required to pursue a successful career in those fields. Camp Medical Detectives covers similar activities but caters to older campers between 10th and 12th grades.
If you want a richer experience, the Health Careers Camp may be best. This program covers a broader range of health-related fields, including physiotherapy, nursing, and more. Your child can participate in practical classes on health sciences and enjoy games that help enforce lessons learned in class.
All MICI-AHEC camps have the same 4-day timeframe. Most programs operate out of the University of Indianapolis campus.
