Program Details

The Skyline High School STEM Program teaches students practical skills in the areas of science, technology, engineering, and math over four years of focused academic coursework. Students are introduced to basic topics related to STEM fields in their first years classes, which evolve into junior and senior level classes. In this program, students design their own projects to solve real world issues using their STEM skills.

Project Introduction

A simple bike can help the less fortunate travel to further places while carrying more supplies. If it's the homeless in the United States who can use the bikes to get to job interviews, or the tribes in Africa who could carry more water back to their families, access to bikes can go a long way for millions of people. Our project is to design a cheap but strong and effective bike that could potentially be given to those in need to improve their situations. There will be 2 sizes of bike frames, one for a child, and one for an adult. When a child outgrows the child frame, it can be replaced with the adult frame, which means he or she can continue to use the bike at a lower cost than buying a new one.
