New York City—a place of endless inspiration, world-class landmarks, and vibrant culture—is also the perfect playground for STEM education. STEM Study Tours is proud to transform this iconic city into an immersive classroom, where students engage in hands-on learning, ignite their curiosity, and discover how science, technology, engineering, and math come alive in the real world.
With our NYC Gamer & Tech itinerary, students embark on a six-day journey packed with unique master classes, awe-inspiring experiences, and unforgettable memories. Let’s take a closer look at what makes this trip so extraordinary.
Day 1: Welcome to the City That Never Sleeps
The adventure begins with an arrival in Manhattan, where students settle into their accommodations and kick off the week with a Welcome, Safety & Orientation session. The excitement starts at Rise NY, a thrilling blend of history, culture, and technology, followed by a walk through the dazzling lights of Times Square—a perfect backdrop for group photos and bonding.
Day 2: Physics Takes Flight
The second day takes off with the I-Fly Indoor Skydiving & Physics Master Class, where students explore the principles of physics through hands-on experiments and thrilling instructor-led jumps. After lunch, they dive into aviation history and physics during a private tour at the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum. The day concludes with a Broadway show, where art, technology, and innovation combine to create unforgettable magic.
Days 3 & 4: A Scientific Odyssey
The following two days offer a deep dive into the world of science at the Liberty Science Center. Through five dynamic master classes, students tackle challenges in game design, 3D modeling, thermodynamics, coding, and more. Highlights include the Life Cycles of the Stars master class at the Chalsty Planetarium, where they unravel the mysteries of the cosmos. Evenings offer free time to explore and a visit to the iconic Empire State Building.
Day 5: Celebrating History and Diversity
The journey continues with a cultural immersion at the magnificent Metropolitan Museum of Art, where students connect STEM concepts to art and history. The day ends with a visit to the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island, blending powerful narratives of innovation, history, and human stories.
Why This Tour Stands Out
This NYC Gamer & Tech tour is a transformative experience that brings STEM to life. From hands-on master classes to iconic landmarks, it equips students with skills and inspiration that extend beyond the classroom. It’s where learning meets adventure, fostering a passion for innovation.
