Engineering

Design & Problem-Solving
STEAM Education
Engineering programs foster creativity, critical thinking, and hands-on problem-solving skills. Encouraging young learners to design, build, test, and refine solutions to real-world challenges. Through the engineering design process, young learners identify problems, brainstorm ideas, create prototypes, and iterate on their designs. This practical approach to learning helps develop resilience, teamwork, and a growth mindset while building foundational knowledge in engineering principles.
