Engineering, Electronics & Soldering
This track provides participants with the core engineering principles required to build, maintain, and upgrade modern military hardware — from drones to field electronics. Students learn how battlefield technology actually works at the component level, enabling smarter decisions in design, deployment, and repair.
Through hands-on training in electronics, circuitry, soldering, and rapid prototyping, participants gain practical technical skills essential for sustaining operations in contested environments. The program emphasizes reliability, improvisation, and combat-ready engineering informed by real Ukrainian frontline experience.
Confidently solder, desolder, and repair electronics under field conditions
Diagnose and fix failures in power systems, radios, and mission-critical modules
Assemble and integrate sensors, microcontrollers, motors, and payload components
