Robo-Autonomous Car: Build and Program Workshop
Event: Robo-Autonomous Car: Build and Program Workshop
Conducted by: Women in Engineering Affinity Group, IEEE WIE AG SB GCEK
The Robotic Autonomous Car Workshop, conducted by the Women in Engineering Affinity Group, IEEE, is an event designed to promote women's participation in STEM fields while being open to all students from various engineering branches. The workshop will provide hands-on experience in robotics and autonomous systems, developing problem-solving skills, creativity, and innovation. With 30% of seats reserved for women, they will have a higher chance of participation, and as an added incentive, they will receive a 10% waiver on the registration fee. The event aims to foster interdisciplinary collaboration, networking, and knowledge sharing among participants, enhancing their employability and career prospects. Both boys and girls from EEE, Electrical, Electronics, Mechanical, Computer Science, and other branches can participate, gaining practical skills and knowledge in robotics and autonomous systems.
