Students gain hands-on experience with real tools and collaborate with driven peers on challenging projects, earning college credit and insights into college-level engineering.
The National Youth Leadership Forum (NYLF): Engineering at Georgia Tech is an immersive, hands-on program for high school students interested in exploring diverse engineering fields. Participants engage in real-world engineering design challenges, utilizing CAD software to design 3D model rockets and programming microcontrollers for autonomous drones. The curriculum also includes building electrical circuits, exploring AI neural networks, and participating in rotational workshops focused on robotics and artificial intelligence. Students develop critical social-emotional skills, collaborate on team challenges, and work on a Capstone Impact Challenge to address UN Sustainable Development Goals. The program aims to provide a clear vision of an engineering future, foster lasting friendships, and offer insights into college-level engineering, with the opportunity to earn college credit from George Mason University.
A typical day involves morning design labs creating 3D model rockets and building electric circuits, followed by afternoon programming sessions with model drones and exploring AI neural networks. Evenings are spent bonding with new friends, collaborating on team challenges, and reflecting on learning.
This program is ideal for high school students in grades 9-12 with a curiosity and passion for STEM, particularly those interested in exploring various engineering fields like mechanical, electrical, artificial intelligence, robotics, or civil engineering, with no prior experience required.
