Details of the Experiences

Over the course of the week, students will:

Master design thinking and entrepreneurship skills, enabling them to solve real-world problems with creativity, compassion, and practicality, and turn their ideas into viable businesses.

Hands-On Learning

Experience the magic of hands-on STEAM by engaging in engineering activities that bring learning to life. Students will build live-size, rideable electric vehicles from scratch using state-of-the-art modular kits from the USA.

Hands-On Learning

This program was born out of the conviction that the future belongs to those who can think critically, solve problems, and innovate with technology. In a world evolving faster than ever, these skills are no longer optional; they are a MUST. STEAMINA was founded to ensure students have that and more!

Program Tracks

The STEAMINA Summer Innovation Program offers three distinct learning tracks. Each track is designed to build foundational, future-ready skills through structured modules, hands-on application, and guided project development. Tracks run concurrently and follow a unified curriculum framework centered on practical learning, collaboration, and design thinking.
