Looking for help?

Our program is geared towards anyone who recognizes the value of an experiential education over a theoretical one. Builders, hackers, do-ers, and everyone who wants to gain experience in robotics and electronics are welcome to join us.

Learn by doing! The main vehicle for learning in the program is by working on an actual physical project.

Project Based Learning is a teaching method in which students gain knowledge and skills by working for an extended period of time to investigate and respond to an authentic, engaging, and complex question, problem, or challenge.

Accelerate your learning with active mentorship and guidance from our community. We facilitate your progress by helping you avoid roadblocks, dead ends, and endless trial and error. We also point you towards a more efficient road map to your skill development. Get the right help at the right time!

Our current tools, equipment, and amenities are listed on the Circuit Launch homepage.

We understand that many people work full time and would still like to enroll in the program however, there are sessions that are some that are compulsory and if you are unable to attend, that will affect your eligibility for the program.

Usually, the first week of the program there will be at least 2-3 compulsory sessions. For the rest of the program there will be 3 group sessions a week that will be scheduled to accommodate as many people as possible.

Absolutely! We balance the program with roughly half in-person and half remote to ensure collaboration is easy and supported both remotely and in lab.

We are an open collaborative ecosystem that encourages sharing of ideas and open source projects. However, we respect and help our community protect their intellectual property. If you do want to work on your startup or file patents for your more advanced projects let us know and we can advise on how to protect your IP.

The Fly Solo program offers the opportunity to work on any project you wish. You will have feedback and mentorship from the otherss in your session and our mentors. However the decisions you make for your project are yours alone to make.

We hope to have benefactors in the future sponsor grants, materials assistance, and low-income financial assistance. Currently we work with individuals on a case-by-case basis to reduce costs based on need.

No. But we believe a portfolio of projects you complete and are involved in demonstrates higher competency on your resume. Plus, getting involved in a community of startups and experts has led many of our members to either launch their own startup or be hired from a company right here at Circuit Launch. There are regular robotics job fairs, networking opportunities, and connection to companies hiring, throughout our program.
