Autonomous Vehicles and Aerospace Engineering as a STEAM development platform

This paper presents the work in progress of using nanosatellites and autonomous vehicles as education platforms for pre-college preparation and career development at Tec de Monterrey in Mexico. Students are recruited in their junior high school year. They undergo a set of tests, until a selected set is recruited to participate in two MIT programming competitions. They are encouraged to continue their participation until the end of their senior year. When they begin their undergraduate studies, they work as mentors and conduct research on autonomous navigation. Participants develop not only high technical skills, but social and leadership skills as well. This program has been running since September 2016 in the Mexico City campus and due to its success, it is being implemented in other campuses. The alumni and current members of these projects have demonstrated a significant growth as compared to their class.
