Description:

Engineering is an important field that offers technical solutions to the practical problems of our everyday life. Taking this basic engineering course is an excellent way to begin learning about the extensive development of technology, engineering achievements, and recent discoveries in any specialized field of engineering that interests students. The course will talk about the history of early engineering disciples. Students will learn about Civil Engineering by exploring how bridges - the oldest form of engineering - are built. By examining Moore’s Law students will gain an understanding of computer and electronic engineering. Throughout the course, the teacher and students will conduct simple experiments that illustrate Ohm’s Law, Electromagnetism, induction, fluid power, solar car design, etc. Students will do a project at the end of the course on any engineering field to demonstrate their learning outcomes.

Pricing:

• Early Bird Pricing through April 18: $325
• Regular Pricing from April 19 through May 31 or class is sold out: $350
