IEEE TryEngineering OnCampus Program Expands to 7 Universities

The OnCampus program, administered by IEEE Educational Activities, last year expanded its engineering experiences from two to seven universities.Part of TryEngineering, the program is held at universities around the world, offering preuniversity students hands-on opportunities to solve engineering problems.The IEEE Innovation Committee provided funding for the additional locations.New participating institutionsThe electrical engineering and computing faculty at the University of Zagreb, in Croatia, hosted a two-day program in June. Twenty-five children ages 10 to 14 participated in lectures and workshops on artificial intelligence, computer science, robotics, and astronomy. Tomislav Jagušt, an IEEE senior member and the chair of the IEEE preuniversity coordinating committee, led the program.In September the Arab Academy for Science, Technology, and Maritime Transport’s engineering college held a two-day session at its Abu Kir, Egypt, campus.
