Practical skills applied to real-world projects.

The robotics curriculum culminates with real-world projects. Industry and company needs change fast, and so do the projects as they evolve to match these changes. Below is an example of a project:

The Robotics curriculum culminates with Game Development in Python. Students will learn essential game development concepts such as controlling player and non-player sprites, implementing in-game physics and collision, object-oriented game design, randomization and artificial intelligence.

High school students rub shoulders with expert alumni.

Your students will get to be part of an elite network and have access to an ever-growing iX Alumni Community. Many of these past students come from the world's top universities, and have gone on to work for Fortune 500 companies in industries relevant to LaunchPad’s learning streams.
