SCI-FI Science Camps was founded in 1989 by a handful of engineering students at the University of Saskatchewan. We delivered our first summer camp in 1990 and reached 140 youth. Since our inception, we have reached over 140,000 children through more than 7000 classroom workshops, and have enrolled another 22,000 youth in week-long summer camps. SCI-FI has grown from a summer staff of four (a director and three instructors) to a summer staff of more than thirty! We were the first program of our kind in Western Canada, and are currently one of the largest nation-wide.


Today, SCI-FI is staffed by students from various colleges on Campus including Engineering, Education, Medicine, Vet Med, and other sciences. We carry out classroom workshops, community programs, science clubs, and during the summer months of July and August hold eight weeks of camps at the College of Engineering on the U of S campus. We also run camp in over 10 other locations across the province.
