Easter Holidays with Electrical and Computer Engineering

Na semana passada, o Técnico recebeu diversos estudantes do ensino secundário no âmbito das Férias no TécLast week, Técnico welcomed several high school students as part of the **Férias no Técnico | Easter 2025** initiative, which promoted interaction with university students. The younger visitors toured various facilities and took part in hands-on experiments across different fields to get to know some of Técnico’s degree programs, such as Electrical and Computer Engineering.

Between April 7th and 11th, members of NEEC – the Student Group of Electrical and Computer Engineering – held workshops that surprised the younger audience: a banana piano. The well-known “banaNEEC" is a simple electronic circuit built using pieces of fruit, programmed with an Arduino board, resulting in a system that plays sounds when the bananas are touched. During this activity, students learned what good conductors are, how electric circuits work, and what behaviors may be dangerous when handling them, among other concepts. By the end, words like “circuits,” “computers,” and “programming” were used by the students to describe Electrical and Computer Engineering.

Por outro lado, os membros do NEEC falaram também sobre o curso de Engenharia Eletrotécnica e de CIn addition, the NEEC members also spoke about the Electrical and Computer Engineering degree program, highlighting its curriculum structure and the exams required for admission to the bachelor's degree.
