Virtual engineering kit
Our virtual engineering kit includes everything students need to build over 60 lessons that we can guide them through virtually. All kits will be sent directly to your school for distribution, and can be reused for future sessions with us. All kits are included in the price of your virtual or grant based program

""My son participates in Professor Egghead Science Academy after school in his ELOP Program. He loves it and looks forward to class every week. I highly recommend.
"What a great class! My son thrived in it. He is so much more confident building Legos and he wants to do a science experiment daily! I highly recommend this class! "
"My daughter took 2 years worth of the program. She would come home raving about the scientific concepts she learned that week. She seemed to retain them too!"
frequently asked questions
Where are your ELOP And Grant Funded enrichment classes held?
We bring our classes directly to your school or district, on site and in person.
What are the Program Requirements?
For our Science classes, we do prefer a sink, but it isn't required. For our Lego classes, we prefer a hard surface for building.
We do ask that we have a dedicated space for class that isn't shared with other programs and has a maximum of 30 students in the space.
What times are available for your enrichment programs?
Whatever time you'd like. We don't set specific dates/times for our workshops. We require at least 2 hours of on-site programming each day that we run, and we prefer that if we have multiple school sites, that they are spread out throughout the week to have a similar number of programs running each day of the week.
Who are your professors and how are they traineD?
Our Professors, all trained by the Academy, are enthusiastic, experienced and knowledgeable. Every Professor that goes out into the world to spread science has gone through a strict hiring process and passed a thorough background check. Our training process includes rigorous onboarding, training, on site observations, and a history of similar work before anyone steps foot in a classroom.
There is a reason we are known for our Professors - they love science and we love them.
What do you do in the classes?
All of our classes and workshops are based off of the kinesthetic model, or learning by doing. We pack each lesson with hands on experiments and fun demonstrations with student interaction that teach keywords and scientific or engineering concepts through the action.
All of our science classes end with a takehome and keyword stickers for students, and all of our engineering classes teach real engineering concepts each week and focus on designing, building, and testing creations.
What are the different themes you offer?
This is our specialty! Because we focus so heavily on science and engineering, we have a lot of curriculum. For our after school science classes, we offer 6 different modules that rotate seasonaly for our science, and 4 for our engineering. Each session Fall, Winter, Spring, we switch to a new module, so a student can take our science classses for two full years without ever repeating a lesson!
what is an egghead id card and degree?
Just as adults are challenged with solving the deepest mysterious in the universe in higher education, so to are your Eggheads when they attend our after school classes. Therefore we must award them with an Egghead Degree in the field of their study. Egghead Degrees are distributed to all students who attend our classes when they graduate the last lesson of the session.
