Learning Outcomes

3D Design

Design mechanical parts and assemblies using CAD while considering fit, function, material choice, and manufacturability.

Level & Character Design

Use digital fabrication workflows such as 3D printing, laser cutting, CNC machining, and hand-tool finishing in supervised lab environments.

Prototype Building

Build and test robotic mechanisms using motors, gears, linkages, wheels, sensors, microcontrollers, and structural components.

Coding & Automation

Program robotic systems to respond to inputs, control movement, automate tasks, and interact with the physical world.

Debugging & Testing

Apply engineering testing, troubleshooting, iteration, and documentation practices to improve prototype performance.

Capstone Project

Complete a final robotics capstone project that combines mechanical design, manufacturing, electronics, coding, and presentation skills.

Prerequisites

Completion of Robotics and IoT, Embedded Systems & IoT, or equivalent hands-on engineering experience is recommended

Students should have basic experience with CAD, electronics, microcontrollers, or hands-on making

Students should be comfortable following safety instructions carefully when working with tools, machines, and moving mechanisms

Basic coding experience using Arduino, Scratch, Python, or similar tools is helpful

Students without prior Meu Labs experience can request an entry test or counselor discussion to assess readiness

Course Structure

Guided hands-on engineering sessions where students learn through design challenges, CAD modelling, fabrication demos, supervised tool use, electronics integration, testing, debugging, and reflection

Continuous progress tracking through completed CAD files, manufactured parts, robot subsystems, instructor feedback, safety practices, technical documentation, teamwork, and problem-solving ability

Portfolio and certification outcomes with student work documented through design files, build photos, test results, robot demos, engineering notes, capstone showcases, and a course completion certificate
