Description
Summary:. The programme is designed to tackle the problem of lack of integrative courses inengineering programmes and the lack of interest in science technology engineering and mathematics subjects among primaryand secondary school students. Under the programme, a robotic team is formed consisting of undergraduate engineeringstudents as mentors/coaches and primary and secondary school students as team members. The team members are taughthow to design, build, and program robots to solve challenges by their mentors
