Autonomous Robotics Workshop

The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering offers a two week summer program for high school students who have completed their sophomore or junior year. The autonomous robotics summer workshop enables students to build a robotic car that can automatically track a line, follow a light, or hide in the dark. The car runs without an operator!

Students will learn basic programming, electronics, how to use a microcontroller, and circuit construction techniques. Prizes will be awarded at the final competition and students will keep their car to take home to amaze their friends and family! This innovative, hands on experience provides students with the opportunity to expand their own creativity, as well as teach them the fundamentals behind electrical and computer engineering. NC State provides room and board, meals, access to athletic and recreational facilities, workshop supplies, and recreational activities for the students.

This is a fun and interactive program for students who are considering engineering as a future career or who want to learn more about electrical and computer engineering!
