Master Robotics Engineer
Prerequisites
What you'll learn
- Design awesome machines with the LEGO® MINDSTORMS® Education EV3 Base Set and Software. Using visual drag-and-drop programming software, build a drag racer that speeds up as you cheer louder or a guard robot that growls at nearby intruders.
- In this course, students are taught engineering basics via exploration and trial and error field testing. Rather than just "snapping bricks together," students are encouraged to think critically about how and why their design needs to adapt to changing conditions.
- Our guided instruction allows campers to understand more complicated engineering techniques such as gear use, pulleys, and inclined planes. Let's get building.
