STEM Summer Academy for High School Students - Presented by Bytes & Bots

Bytes & Bots STEM Summer Academy for High School StudentsLocated at Irvine Valley College’s new School of Integrated Design, Engineering and Automation There are 4 different week-long camps starting July 8th thru August 2nd Week 1 // July 8th - 12th // $795* Topic: Electronic Engineering I Students learn to interpret electronic schematics, understand selected electronic components and AC and DC power distribution. They then design a printed circuit board and generate its Gerber files that will be used to professionally fabricate the board. In preparation for Electronic Engineering II, they also learn the basics of coding, cross-compiling, downloading, and debugging simple C/C++ embedded computer programs. Skills Outcome: Identify, Describe, and Use basic electronic components. Understand and use AC and DC power Embedded computer ASIC PCB Program in C/C++ Debugging https://bytesandbots.com/products/electronics-engineering-high-school-summer-academy-at-ivc-atep Week 2 // July 15th - 19th // $795 Topic: Design Thinking & Engineering Innovation How can you “Dream Big” and create ideas that have global impact for positive change? What skills are needed for the 21st Century worker and entrepreneur? What tools are involved in the process of design and innovation and which tools are necessary to bring an idea to life? How does one find their career choice and passion in life? Skills Outcome: Design Thinking Modules: Empathy, Define, Ideate, Prototype, and Test New World of Work, 21st Century Employability Skills: Adaptability, Analysis, Collaboration, Communication, Digital Fluency, Empathy, Entrepreneurial Mindset, Resilience, Self-Awareness, Social Diversity. STEAM Career Exploration, focused on Engineering Technologies, including: Civil, Mechanical, Electrical, Computer, Aviation, Automation, Robotic, and Electronic. Tour of IDEA Labs at ATEP included. https://bytesandbots.com/products/bytes-bots-high-school-summer-academy-at-ivc-atep Week 3 // July 22nd - 26th // $795 Topic: Robotics Engineering Students Design, build, program, and test a small mobile robot. They learn Mechatronics engineering using an embedded computer and various sensors together with programs written in C/C++. Skills Outcome: Robot Design with applied Mechanical Engineering C/C++ Programming Mechatronics Embedded Computer Sensors Real-Time Data Collection and Robot Programming Testing and Debugging https://bytesandbots.com/products/robotics-engineering-high-school-summer-academy-at-ivc-atep Week 4 // July 29th - August 2nd // $795* Topic: Electronic Engineering II Continuing from Week 1(Electronics Engineering I), students are taught how to solder electronic components to the Printed Circuit Boards. Then, using the Printed Circuit Board that they designed in Electronic Engineering I, they assemble, test, program, and debug an embedded computer that controls a garden watering system. Skills Outcome: Soldering Identify and describe some of the basic electronic chipsets and use them on a PCB. Assemble electronic components. Test Embedded Computer system Program embedded computer Debug embedded computer https://bytesandbots.com/products/electronics-engineering-ii-high-school-summer-academy-at-ivc-atep *The Electronic Engineering Camp requires that students sign up for Week 1 & Week 4 Camps run Monday to Friday - 9:00am - 4:00pm**Camps end at 3:00 pm on Fridays Extended Lab hours on Thursdays from 4 pm to 9 pm  For more information visit: https://bytesandbots.com/pages/enroll/#SummerAcademy Please refer to our website for additional information and cancellation policy.
