WORKSHOPS: Whether you’re looking for a place to apply what you know or learn something new, gain hands-on experience from our expert volunteer instructors! Together, we will be exploring the inner workings behind 3D-printing and CAD design, Arduinos, compute a program, craft with robotics, and fun math problems.

COMPETITIONS: Show off your skills in our math competition, chess competition, and Rubik’s Cube challenge! Winners will receive prizes and certificates in our award ceremony with their names on them.

STANDS/ACTIVITIES: Stands will be offered showcasing cool and intriguing STEM activities and demonstrations.

PRIOR REGISTRATION IS RECOMMENDED FOR WORKSHOPS & COMPETITIONS: THE REGISTRATION LINK WILL BE SENT TO YOUR EMAIL AFTER YOU REGISTER FOR GENERAL ADMISSION HERE. Priority will be given to those with prior registration. Please ensure to bring a laptop + any supplies mentioned in email later on for some workshops.

After completing these workshops, participants will gain valuable knowledge and insight into the topics and, in some cases, even take home a completed small-scale project! Moreover, all event participants will receive electronic certificates. All competition attendees, regardless of the results, will receive electronic certificates of participation.

At the event, there will be a lucky draw with several prizes. One entry is offered to each attendee by default, and additional entries may be earned for each workshop or activity you participate in!
