Biomedical Mechanical Engineering

Every Saturday from September 19th to October 17th , 2026, from 1:00 to 3:30 p.m.

Discover where engineering meets the human body in the Biomedical Mechanical Engineering Bootcamp. This bootcamp explores the intersection of mechanical engineering and medicine, challenging participants to analyse how the human body moves, supports itself, and heals. Students will design prosthetic prototypes, model joint mechanics, and create assistive devices. Ideal for aspiring engineers fascinated by healthcare innovation, rehabilitation technology, and the machines that keep us moving.

Forensic Science Bootcamp

Every Saturday from October 31st to November 27th, 2026, from 1:00 to 3:30 p.m. 

Step into the world of a crime scene investigator with the role of forensic scientist and piece together evidence using authentic investigative techniques. Participants will analyze mock crime scenes, collect and examine fingerprints, study blood spatter patterns, test trace evidence, and chromatography among other processes. Through rigorous scientific methodology and critical thinking, they will work through mock case studies, teams will document evidence, analyze data, and present findings. Dress for the lab, think like a detective, and follow the evidence where it leads.
