  • How it works

1.

Choose a week between July 6 and July 30.

Each inventsummer project comes with access to videos, detailed instructions, and a chat with mentors and other students.

During the week, we'll pair you up with other students so you can learn as a team and push each other. 

If the project requires hardware, we'll ship you a kit of parts.

2.

Get Mentored by Real-world Engineers and Data-scientists.

You'll also have a 1-hour mentorship session each day where you can ask real engineers and data scientists for help!

You'll spend 5 hours each day with your teammates working to build your project.

3.

Serious fun!

By the end of the week, you'll have a tangible real-world project you can show your friends and family!
