Protocamp

Protocamp (Protopaja) - is a summer course of the School of Electrical Engineering. Students of Technology and Arts build prototypes in teams, the team size depending on the topic. Most students do their bachelor level studies in electrical engineering, computer science or mechanical engineering, but the course can be taken in the master's level as well. Multicultural multidiscipline groups are preferred and encouraged. The tasks are given by our client companies.
Detail from Mechatronics Circus

The course takes place in Electrical Engineering Workshop in TUAS, Maarintie 8, where we have electronics components, 3D-printers, a laser cutter, and other tools available. More components and tools are acquired when needed. We have also short teaching sessions to learn relevant techniques. The client companies get a motivated student group and assistance from the teachers to solve technical problems innovatively and to further develop ideas.
