About this event

Designed for high school students, this program emphasizes teamwork, advanced problem-solving, and the full engineering design process. Participants will build and program robots, experiment with electrical engineering fundamentals, and use industry-standard software for mechanical and structural design. Students will also explore materials science through a scaled-up 3D-printing challenge, engineering and testing prototype components for strength, flexibility, and performance. The week culminates in a collaborative mechanical challenge, along with an industry site visit to Honda Corporation in Marysville, where students connect classroom engineering to real-world innovation and career pathways.
