Students receive their own robotics kit, allowing them to continue experimenting and learning even after the program concludes.
The NYU Tandon School of Engineering SPARC (Summer Program in Automation, Robotics, and Coding) is a two-week, full-day intensive designed for high school students interested in robotics, automation, and programming. Participants engage in hands-on lab sessions and faculty-led instruction to build foundational knowledge in microcontrollers and sensor integration. The program emphasizes practical application, allowing students to build their own interactive robotic devices by combining concepts from mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, and computer science. Students gain experience with circuitry, electronic components, automation systems, and foundational programming skills, culminating in robot competitions and challenges where they test their creations in real-world scenarios. The curriculum is designed to cultivate technical skills, problem-solving abilities, and innovative thinking.
A typical day involves 6 hours of classes, focusing on hands-on activities, building and programming robots, and learning core concepts in automation and robotics engineering.
This program is ideal for academically motivated high school students (rising 9th-12th graders) with a keen interest in robotics and automation, even those without prior experience.
