Description: Students will engage in interdisciplinary learning of Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math through a hands-on project based approach. Students will receive advanced level exploratory introduction and guidance on topics including proper use of machinery tools, foundation in applied physics, basic concepts behind drivetrain systems, pneumatics, and actuators, designing and creating models using a laser cutter and CNC machine, analyzing design tools and simulations on created Computer-Aided Design (CAD), implementation of Introduction and Advanced STEAM concepts through real applications of classroom concepts. Acquiring of knowledge will be demonstrated through a series of projects starting with research and initial design and culminating with the completion of a build project that is focused on solving real-world problems.
