Depth
How deep you go is up to you.
There is no beginner version and no advanced version of this. You enter wherever you actually are — and a ten-year-old and a forty-year-old can be at the same place.

Design ProcessGo from a need to a working thing, through iteration rather than luck.Mechanisms & StructuresUnderstand what holds, what moves, and what fails.Robotics & ControlGive a machine senses, decisions and movement.Materials & FabricationChoose the right material and actually make the part.Systems EngineeringMake many parts work as one thing, and find the weakest link.
