STEM Camps Across California - Partnership with US Sports

September 13, 2023

Along with US Sports, we are launching summer camps at select universities across California! Summer 2022 programs will be hosted at UC Irvine, UC San Diego, and UC Santa Barbara.

We are excited to share a new partnership that will allow our programs to reach more students! Together, US Sports Camps and STEM Center USA are excited to announce the launch of STEM summer camps held at prestigious campuses across California. For over 47 years, US Sports Camps has partnered with coaches across the country to produce leading youth sports camps. This year, US Sports Camps is adding academic programs to the mix with all California program powered by STEM Center USA. These STEM Camps are the combination of US Sports Camps’ four decades of experience in safety, enrichment, and fun along with the trusted curriculum and instruction of STEM Center USA.

Co-founders and sisters Lavanya and Melissa Jawaharlal started STEM Center USA to inspire and empower the next generation of STEM leaders. We created the company with a wish to share our own background and love for engineering by promoting engaging student learning, providing hands-on educational opportunities, and fostering a love for technology and the STEM fields. This partnerships with US Sports allow us to scale our summer camp offerings throughout California - beginning in Irvine, San Diego, and Santa Barbara.

“We live in a tech-dependent world where students need to have a basic understanding of how things work. So let’s make learning fun, meaningful and long lasting,” says Lavanya Jawaharlal, “and US Sports’ commitment to youth provides a foundation of safety, growth, and success while reaching out to more learners.”

“In my two decades of STEM education,” says Charlie Freund, Partnership Director for Youth Enrichment Brands at US Sports Camps, “what activates student potential is the growth mindset, confidence, and joy of hands-on learning. That is how we are going to change the game.”


Weeklong day camps will be running from June through August at campuses throughout Central and Southern California including UC Irvine, UC San Diego, and UC Santa Barbara. Half-day and full-day options are available for ages 6 to 17! Registration for 2022 STEM Camps is open now! Interested parents, youth and educators can visit the US Sports Camps website for more information.
