Summer Explorers

An immersive summer for teens in an international university

Designed for learners from 12 to 17 years old, RMIT's Summer Explorers program promises teens an extraordinary one-of-a-kind summer, with every minute full of new learnings and memorable moments. Studying, having fun and making new friends in an international university environment, a summer at RMIT will help teens become more independent while they practise thinking like a university student. Students will be inspired and instructed to:

• Improve English proficiency through project-based learning
• Develop critical thinking, communication and problem-solving skills
• Plan for their future careers through a personality test and workshop
• Build resilience to thrive during life's changes
• And most importantly, get the wonderful summer they deserve

Throughout the Teen Summer Explorers program, you will work on a project to raise awareness of endangered animals.

You will learn skills that can prepare you to study in an international environment:

• Communication and problem-solving skills
• Cross-cultural experience: Diversity and respect
• Understanding colloquial English in Australia, UK and North America
• Building resilience: How to thrive during change
• First Aid Awareness

Glimpse into an international university

You will be taught by highly-qualified RMIT teachers using interactive university preparation techniques, which provides an advantage for learners while you are still in high school. The teen programs at RMIT offers a glimpse into the university experience,  increasing preparedness for higher education.
