During outdoor activities and breaks between lab sessions at our NYU camps, iD Tech students can enjoy all that the campus has to offer. Located in the heart of Greenwich Village, NYU is a hub for New York City cultural life. Washington Square specifically is a central piece, with Washington Square Arch standing out as an unofficial symbol of NYU.
With 26 Pulitzer Prize winners, 38 Academy Award recipients, and 7 Olympic medalists among NYU's past and present faculty and alumni, students can't help but be inspired when walking such prestigious grounds.
In addition to skill-building and friendships, each iD Tech camp offers students the valuable opportunity of exploring a prestigious university campus. At NYU, this includes chowing down in NYU EATS alongside future tech disruptors, taking in campus landmarks like Washington Mews, and basking in the sunshine during outdoor activities and games across Washington Square Park. The entire experience gives students an exciting glimpse into their own bright future.
