Academic content in depth
DEEP uses week-long engineering, technology and science courses to introduce topics often encountered later in study. Courses are designed and taught by engineering graduate students and other teaching contributors, connecting with research interests. It is not one fixed subject camp; admitted students select from the current course schedule.
Classes, assignments and workload
The official 2027 page lists four July weeks at St. George for grades 9–12, with up to four weekly courses. Applicants must be accepted before registering. The page still says further details will be updated in winter and marks course fees as pending, so previous weekly prices should not be reused as current quotations.
Eligibility and international applicants
For grades 9–12 in 2026/27, with at least one completed year of high school. The grade-9/10 and grade-11/12 offerings have different mathematics and science prerequisites.
Dates and costs
Schedule
2027: July 5–9, 12–16, 19–23 or 26–30.
Costs
Current full costs require verification. Check tuition, accommodation, meals, insurance and travel inclusions.
Fit and preparation
Useful for exploring a defined engineering topic. International families should separately verify accommodation, travel and supervision arrangements.
Application preparation
Choose a course that connects with your mathematics and science foundation while offering a reasonable challenge. Identify whether the syllabus emphasises theory, coding, experiments or design rather than choosing only by a fashionable title. Be ready to explain a problem you tackled and improved, and verify housing, international arrangements and registration separately.
Choosing well and reflecting on outcomes
It may suit students comparing engineering areas or concentrating one week on a particular topic. More weeks do not automatically mean more value; consider progression and time to consolidate. Compare the questions, methods, work and further preparation arising from each course to build a clearer academic direction.
Frequently asked questions
Does submitting an application secure a course?
No. Programme admission precedes course registration, and course capacity and arrangements still matter.
Can I choose just one week?
The programme uses week-long courses; consult current registration rules rather than assuming all four weeks are mandatory.
Are 2027 weekly fees available?
The checked page still marks them as pending.
