What are you learning?
STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics. In the basic option STEM techniques you and your teacher will set out to discover and further develop your talents within a STEM course. You can STEM techniques follow in the A stream (context Electricity & Mechanics) & in the B stream (context Electricity, Mechanics & Wood).
In STEM techniques you learn to devise and design your own systems. You are challenged to investigate for yourself which choices you can make in a safe and well-considered manner ('Which raw materials, tools, machines… will you use?'). You complete the circle by testing and, if necessary, improving your system.
To get inspiration, you will also examine everyday systems. You use mathematics and science for this. To understand the language of technology, you also learn to read manuals, plans & drawings. Because a real thinker and doer uses all his talents.
When you have become acquainted with all these possibilities, you will already have a completely different picture of all professional and study opportunities in which you can use these talents.
What is a basic option?
In the 1e year you get general basic education. From the 2e year you still get a lot of basic education that is the same for everyone, but you can choose a basic option. The basic options serve as an introduction so that you can discover what you have talent and interest in. From your experiences you will then be able to choose a course of study in the 2nd degree.
Something for you?
For who?
Do you ever wonder how a device works? Do you like to roll up your sleeves yourself? Do you want to make your own invention real? Then you are in the right place for STEM techniques!
What after?
Have you passed the 2nd year? Then you can start in the 2nd degree. The basic option 2B STEM techniques is an ideal prior education for the courses Electricity, Automechanica, Basic Mechanics Machines & Wood. Switching to 1A is also possible. The basic option 2A STEM techniques is an ideal prior education for the courses Electrical techniques & Electromechanics.
