Today, your students can experience the modern cutting edge of radio communications, engineering, and science in a myriad of environments using radio. Whether talking locally, around the world, via satellite communications and even astronauts in space, students can learn the basis of radio communications, electrical engineering, science, and development for projects and future careers.
Contact Sets Path to the Stars
Amateur radio opens a unique door, exposing students not just to radio communications, but also electrical and engineering theory, research practices, programming, space exploration, emergency communications and more. Involvement brings forward important critical thinking skills as they find their way into this exciting and lifelong hobby.
