The LAU Engineering Robotics and Artificial Intelligence Summer School

LAU Beirut campus

The School of Engineering is organizing a two-week summer school in Robotics and Artificial Intelligence at the LAU Beirut campus.

The LAU Robotics and AI Summer School is designed to initiate middle school students into engineering. It will provide firsthand experience that will help them make future career decisions. Participants will also learn how to design, build, and program robots at LAU’s School of Engineering laboratories using LEGO Spike Prime Kits, VEX Robots, and Artificial Intelligence.

Throughout the program, students will gain practical experience in mathematics, coding, robot design, basic artificial intelligence programming, and control, while also engaging in team challenges and a final robotics competition to test their skills.

 

What’s new this year?
  • Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) certificates
  • Stronger math foundations that support robotics + AI learning
  • Python coding fundamentals for problem-solving and automation
  • NEW: VEX Robotics training, including preparation that helps students who want to join the National VEX Robotics Competition in the Fall

Fees: $700 for two weeks, including high-end robotics educational kits, fully equipped laboratories, meals, and fun activities.
