Spark Saturdays

SPARK Saturdays is a program created by ECE Outreach that aims to introduce middle and high school students to concepts within the field of electrical and computer engineering and expose them to engineering as a potential career choice. There are typically 4-5 labs, held on Carnegie Mellon’s campus in Spring semester, ranging from topics like the binary number system and boolean logic to programming in Python to building circuits with LEDs and that can be used as radios.

Our program is free of charge and will be held in-person at CMU’s campus!

The labs assume no prior knowledge, and students are provided with assistance from Carnegie Mellon graduate and undergraduate students.
