About this opportunity
GenWise GW Explorers is a two-week intensive academic enrichment program designed specifically for gifted students entering grades 6 and 7. The program provides 60 hours of hands-on, inquiry-based learning across STEM and humanities disciplines, fostering curiosity and independent thinking in academically talented children.
The first week focuses on Mathematics, Science, and Design and Technology with a STEM emphasis.

The second week shifts to humanities, covering Nature, Society and Individual, along with Tools for Thinking and Communication.
