About the Course:
Pioneers in Engineering (PiE) is a nonprofit student organization aimed at lowering the barrier of entry to robotics competition for underprivileged high school students.
Participants in the DeCal will be trained in game analysis, mentorship, and the mechanical, electrical, and programming aspects of the robotics kit.
Participants will then take this knowledge with them as they mentor local, disadvantaged high school students in a 7 week long season to build a robot to compete in the annual PiE competition, which will take place at the Lawrence Hall of Science on 4/14/2012
Participants in the DeCal will be expected to mentor their high school teams for two hours a week, in addition to writing a brief one paragraph summary of their visit.
** NO ROBOTICS EXPERIENCE IS NECESSARY! **
