The details
WHAT
During the course, students will be introduced to three different areas of engineering they could study at university, including:
**Cyber Security** – learn about the basic principles of cyphers, encryption and cyber safety. Through fun puzzles and videos, students will discover the importance of strong passwords, online research, and privacy.
**Electrical Engineering** – students will get the opportunity to experiment safely with soldering as they work in teams to design, build and test their own FM radios, learning about the basic principles of circuits.
**Space** – Students will design and build prototype spacecraft while exploring their real-world applications in communication, research and space exploration.
In the evening, the energy continues with games, teamwork, and moments to relax and recharge.
**If you have previously attended an Engineering Experience course you may have already completed some of the modules above, please evaluate whether this program offers a suitable learning experience. If you are unsure, please contact info@smallpeicetrust.org.uk**
