To promote engineering education in the high school classroom, the Faculty of Engineering and Faculty of Education at the University of Ottawa are hosting a summer school.  This event is designed to help high school students to discover what engineering is all about. The school also provides the young generation with an opportunity for practical application and exhibition of basic math, science, and technology. 

The relevance of robotics technology has increased rapidly in the last few years.  High school students need to be able to participate in controlling technological change because it will shape their future lives and careers.  We will explore robots. You will even build your own robot!
