Spark Design Club
Fun. Engineering. Spark is a University of Toronto Engineering student group, which has a passion for hands-on engineering. Visit us at: http://spark.skule.ca
We provide workshops open to all students, even non-engineers, where we build projects (usually interactive installations) to be showcased around the Engineering campus. Basic skills in applied design and prototyping are taught, and Sparkers (our participants) get to go hands-on in every step of the building process.
