Students gain practical experience by programming microcontrollers to interact with their environment and develop their own product ideas.
The Temple University Hardware & Software Engineering: Coding Challenge is a day camp where students learn fundamental coding skills. Participants will utilize open-source hardware and software to program microcontrollers, enabling them to sense and respond to environmental inputs such as moisture, sound, and light. The program emphasizes hands-on prototyping and manufacturing skills. By the end of the camp, students will have the opportunity to present their new product ideas. This program challenges students to learn about autonomous programmable robots and various aspects of electrical and computer engineering.
A typical day involves hands-on learning in a state-of-the-art electronics laboratory, programming microcontrollers, and practicing prototyping and manufacturing skills.
This program is ideal for rising 10th-12th graders interested in exploring coding, robotics, and electrical and computer engineering through practical, project-based learning.
