DATES: TBD

EXPLORE the world of ‟small” and get hands-on experience with semiconductor chip design and manufacturing.

STUDY how renewable energy can be harvested from sunlight using the same advanced semiconductor technologies that have enabled computers, smartphones, self-driving cars, and artificial intelligence. 

DESIGN and MAKE a solar cell from the ground up and a solar car that runs by converting solar energy to mechanical power.

This program will require the completion of multiple online safety/instructional courses before the program date.
