A Kinda Sorta Almost Typical Day
Most of the activities we have planned give you a chance to experience the academics and research taking place at UC Davis, and that definitely doesn't mean dry classroom lectures! Our focus is hands-on, experiential learning. Each program is filled with different trips and activities, but one thing's for sure—you won't be bored. Every day you spend with us is a little different. Or a lot different. And that's what makes our programs unique, wonderful and exciting. Here’s an example of a typical day:
| 7:00-8:00 | Breakfast | |
|---|---|---|
| 8:30-11:45 | Classes/ Labs/ Site Visits | |
| 11:45-1:00 | Lunch | |
| 1:10-5:00 | Classes/ Labs/ Site Visits | |
| 5:00-5:40 | Transition Time | |
| 5:40-6:30 | Dinner | |
| 7:00-10:00 | Evening Activities | |
| 10:30 | Lights Out |
Activities and Events
When you're not busy learning more about your chosen subject area, you'll be having a different kind of fun—socials, field trips and learning more about UC Davis and the surrounding community:
Social Events
Our program staff organizes evening and weekend events to add a dynamic, social element to your pre-college experience. Things like movie nights, exploring the Arboretum, swim parties at the Rec Pool, or bowling and games night at the student union.
Weekend Excursions
UC Davis is just an hour or two away from great destinations in Northern California — in the past our students have enjoyed fun day trips to various locations in the San Francisco Bay area, not to mention fun excursions closer to Davis.
