College Innovators 101
An immersive program crafted to give undergraduates hands-on experience in innovation and prototyping.
In today’s fast-evolving industries, having just technical know-how isn’t enough for undergrads. You need the Design Thinking mindset to empathize, ideate, prototype, and iterate at startup speed.
Innovation 101 replaces lectures with action—from morning ideation to sunset builds—transforming raw ideas into working hardware prototypes.
Through interdisciplinary teamwork, real-world challenges, and expert guidance, you’ll be ready to shine in hackathons, design marathons, internships, and entrepreneurial ventures.
