Hello Everyone,

The DC Coding Association is proud to announce our upcoming event, the 2024 Inaugural STEM Odyssey! Our volunteers have worked hard to create this event and give YOU the opportunity to explore your STEM passion. Looking forward to seeing you there!

---------------------------

Looking for a place to meet new STEM friends and gain valuable knowledge? Join DC Coding in our new event! Held at the UBC Alumni Centre, the 2024 Inaugural STEM Odyssey will be a day full of enriching educational STEM workshops targeted towards students grades 3 and above.

~ OUR DAY ~

WORKSHOPS: Whether you’re looking for a place to apply what you know or learn something new, gain hands-on experience from our expert volunteer instructors! Together, we will be exploring how to use Arduinos, compute a program, craft with robotics, and calculate in math.

COMPETITIONS: Show off your calculation skills in our math competition and Rubik’s Cube challenge! Winners will receive certificates in our award ceremony with their names on them.

~ STANDS/ACTIVITIES ~

Brought to you by our lovely sponsors as well as volunteers, vendor stands will be offered as well as STEM activities and demonstrations.

~ WHAT YOU WILL GAIN ~

After completing these workshops, participants will gain valuable knowledge and insight into the topics and, in some cases, even take home a completed small-scale project! Moreover, all event participants will receive electronic certificates. All competition attendees, regardless of the results, will receive electronic certificates of participation.

~ EXTRA FUN ~

At the event, there will be a lucky draw with several prizes. One entry is offered to each attendee by default, and additional entries may be earned for each workshop or activity you participate in!

Plus, musical performances will be played throughout the event for more entertainment!
