DISCOVER THE FUTURE OF INNOVATION

Do you love designing, building, and modern technology? Do you want to learn more about the kinds of jobs that will lead the future? Our Introduction to STEM program is your gateway to innovation and hands-on, team-based learning, where creativity meets high-tech tools and endless possibilities.

​

Meeting on alternating days, this program introduces students to the fundamentals of STEM through rotating exercises that emphasize the engineering design process, scientific inquiry, teamwork, and real-world math applications. Students will design objects with CAD software and bring their ideas to life using 3D printing, laser cutting, and water jet cutting. They will also build and program robots and autonomous aerial drones, applying advanced technology and problem-solving skills to create innovative solutions.

 

By the end of the course, successful students will apply their skills to a capstone project that integrates all four STEM content areas, designing, fabricating, and solving a complex real-world challenge.

 

Whether you’re dreaming of a future in engineering, robotics, or technology innovation, this program equips you with the foundational skills and hands-on experience to excel in STEM fields.
