Hi I'm starting an engineering club in my school and I'd like some ideas of engineer-like projects to make.

I'm really concerned with it being interesting and it being something that people want to be a part of considering my school is pretty uninvolved.

The projects I have in mind emphasize campus exposure to the club and science/engineering education as the most important aspect.

I would really appreciate it if anyone could give some suggestions to a project(s) that allow people to learn engineering through a hands on and visual approach.

Thank you!

Electronics projects are always interesting, but that depends on your club's budget. For instance, you could look into programming Arduinos to accomplish some task. Alternately, you could look around at the many robotics kits there are out there.
 
What is the age range of the students in your school and that you hope to attract to your club.
