RF Basics Workshop on Antennas @Georgia Tech ECE
Background:
IEEE Atlanta AP/MTT recently received a grant to run RF Basic Workshops with affordable RF kits for two years. This upcoming workshop will teach young undergraduate students about antennas with a pre-planned hands-on activity involving designing and building simple antennas. The world of RF is vast and stems to various technical and research fields. It is important to give young engineers early hands-on experience and exposure to basic RF concepts.
Who can participate?
We are looking for volunteers with basic antenna/RF/wireless comms experience to help lead groups of 4-6 students. The lesson plan/guide will be provided before the activity! (This will also help the volunteers get a RF refresher themselves.) Note, the volunteer does not have to be a member of AP-S or MTT-S to participate. (Any emag/RF/wireless enthusiast is welcomed!)
Where and When?
Date/Time: April 14, 2026 (Tuesday, 6:00-8:30PM)
Location: 777 Atlantic Dr NW, Atlanta, GA 30332 (The HIVE Makerspace in the Van Leer Building, School of ECE)
Note: We are tentatively trying to schedule a "dry-run" event for the volunteers to go over the lesson plan before the actual workshop. More details on that dry-run TBA.
