In this bootcamp, teens will use their creativity to build their own microcontrollers using Arduino's and micro:bit technologies. Through fun, hands-on activities, they will learn electrical engineering concepts such as how processors work, microcircuit design, and programming. This program is designed for students of all levels.

Dates: Every Saturday from January 21 to February 18, 2022, from 1 p.m. to 3:30 p.m.

Students participating in our Engineering Bootcamp will experience five different types of engineering: civil, mechanical, biomedical, electrical, and computer engineering. Students will learn about possible careers within each field and participate in related activities. They will also get to use the University's computer science labs and classrooms over the course of the bootcamp. If your child is interested in engineering, but not quite sure which type of engineering, this is the right program for them!

Dates: Every Saturday from February 25 to March 25 from 1 p.m. to 3:30 p.m.
