01Project-based STEM
Learn it.Build it. Race it.
ADNOC Yas in Schools gives students a pathway into hands-on STEM learning from age six. Motorsport provides the context: teams research, design, manufacture, test and present projects while developing technical and collaborative skills.
1M+
hours of student learning delivered across the programme's history.
02Core programmes
Three programmes.One engineering mindset.
Each pathway uses competition and design challenges to turn STEM concepts into something students can build, test and improve.
STEM Racing
Teams plan, research, analyse, manufacture and test a miniature F1®-style car using digital design and manufacturing tools.
4x4 in Schools
Students design, build and code a miniature remote-controlled 4x4 capable of navigating a technical obstacle course.
03Experience Centre
STEM insidea Formula 1® circuit.
The dedicated Yas in Schools Experience Centre places learning against the backdrop of Yas Marina Circuit and gives students access to specialist resources and technology.
01ResearchUnderstand the brief
Teams explore the challenge, roles, rules and engineering objectives.
02DesignCreate the solution
Students use design thinking, digital tools and engineering principles.
03BuildManufacture & code
Ideas become physical prototypes, miniature vehicles and working systems.
04CompeteTest under pressure
Performance, reaction time, teamwork and presentation all become part of the result.
04Beyond the classroom
Skills that travelbeyond motorsport.
Students develop technical literacy alongside collaboration, communication, creativity, project management and problem-solving — with the excitement of racing making the learning tangible.
