Austin’s premium engineering academy for ages 10–14
Small classes
Real electronics
Austin, Texas
No toy kits. Real engineering tools.
Students build working electronic devices using Arduino, Python, sensors, motors, displays, and real code.
Why Beyond STEM?
A serious STEM academy for students ready to build real things.
Beyond STEM gives middle-school students the tools, language, and engineering habits used in real technical work — with the support parents expect from a premium learning environment.
Real Engineering
Students build real electronic devices using Arduino microcontrollers instead of toy construction kits.
Real Programming
Students learn Python and Arduino programming in real programming languages instead of drag-and-drop block coding.
Project-Based Learning
Every lesson ends with a working project students build themselves.
