Free courses

Learn it at your own pace, and earn a certificate.

Two short, self-paced courses on how things get designed, built and flown, with calculators to try, a quiz in every lesson, and a certificate with your name on it for each course you finish. No account, no cost.

  1. Engineering Foundations: How Things Get Designed and BuiltThe design process, fields and careers, measurement, forces and structures, circuits, and code and testing.
  2. Aerospace Engineering: How Things FlyThe four forces of flight, wings and lift, stability and gliders, rockets, and reaching orbit.

Workshops and webinars on real engineering.

Most students never get to try engineering before they have to decide whether to study it. ABLE Engineering closes that gap with hands-on sessions and honest conversations about what engineers actually do all day.

Like every ABLE branch, all of it is free, and open to anyone who turns up.

Design, build, and the people who do it

Hands-on build sessions

Design-and-build workshops where you make something, test it, and learn why it worked or didn't.

How-it-works webinars

The engineering behind everyday things, explained from the ground up: no prerequisites assumed.

Guest engineers

People who build things for a living, on what the work is really like and how they got there.

Students at the ABLE Engineering Aerodynamics & Glider Workshop

ABLE Engineering workshop

Anyone who likes taking things apart, or wants to know how they go together.

You don't need robotics experience or a physics class under your belt. ABLE Engineering is for any student curious about how the built world works.

ABLE Engineering launches

Our fourth branch opens: hands-on workshops and webinars on how things get designed, built, and tested.

Aerodynamics & Glider Workshop

How air moving over a wing creates lift and drag, and why a glider's shape and balance matter. Then everyone built their own glider and test-flew it.
