NuVu is an award-winning innovation school for young students (ages 11-18) based in Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA. NuVu offers students the opportunity to work with experts across diverse disciplines (Technology, Design, Robotics, Programming, Art, Fashion and more) and explore the power of making. NuVu’s pedagogy is based on the architectural Studio model and geared around multi-disciplinary, collaborative projects. NuVu teaches students how to navigate the creative process: exploring, ideating, designing, prototyping and inventing.

For the Summer 2015 term, our theme will be Science Fiction! Students will dive into a multitude of topics surrounding that theme, stretching their imaginations and gaining valuable knowledge and skills along the way. With studio topics that include Sci-Fi Vehicles, Sci-Fi Toys, Futuristic Worlds, Sci-Fi Video Games, and Flying Objects, NuVu students will learn about Science, Engineering, Computer Programming, Robotics, Electronics, Product Design, Fashion Design, Music, Art, and Filmmaking, as well as inspire each student to develop social, problem solving, and technology skills.

In each studio, students will be pushed out of their comfort zone, and will stretch their creative limits to come up with something they have never done before. They will be designing gadgets, programming and building robots, creating digital art and animation, designing and fabricating interactive clothing garments, and inventing new toys. In every studio, in a period of two weeks, students will go through the process of learning, conceptualizing, designing, making and continuously remaking their products. They will work in collaborative teams under the guidance of our Coaches, who are professional experts and academics at MIT and Harvard. The studios are inspired by cutting-edge research and inventions from MIT as well as the vibrant technology and design industries.
