About The Event
Our popular Youth Technology Camps are a 2-day event where students aged 8-15 learn about emerging technologies, investigate and research special STEM topics, participate in engineering design challenges, and more. Students have to use their critical thinking, problem-solving, and teamwork skills to participate in various fun
and interactive activities.
This is the perfect opportunity for your child to prepare for future opportunities and become an early adopter of emerging technology and Maker culture!
Exploring Engineering - These holidays, we look at various disciples of Engineering, and students participate in hands-on projects and demonstrations.
Day 1
- Biotechnology: What is CRISPR?You will learn about the fascinating gene editing and the biotechnology world. Have you ever wondered how scientists can make changes to DNA to cure diseases or improve crops? We will explore a tool called CRISPR that lets scientists do just that!
- Electronics: Learn how to program and control electronic devices using Arduino. You'll discover how to connect sensors, LEDs, and other components to create an Ultrasonic Security System. A perfect way to develop your engineering skills and explore your imagination.
Day 2
- Civil Engineering: Structures - Earthquake-proof buildings! Explore the world of structural engineering and how engineers design buildings that can withstand earthquakes. We also explore live earthquake data, and students get challenged to build a structure to withstand a simulated earthquake!
- Mechanical Engineering: Gears and Motion - Explore the physics of torque, the mechanics of gears, and how they work together to create motion. You'll discover how different gears can change a system's speed and direction of motion. Build and simulate gears and understand how they are applied in the real world.
