College of Education Robotics Program
The TU College of Education Robotics Program is designed to broaden participation in STEM and robotics education. Through this free program, local elementary and middle school students come to TU, where they learn to design, build, and program robots. Pre-service teachers work alongside faculty to co-design and teach the weekend sessions. The program culminates with parents and guardians participating in a day of learning alongside their children.
