About Young Engineers Uganda

Young Engineers Uganda is the franchise that started it all. Part of the global Young Engineers network operating in over 70 countries, it brings a proven, child-centred curriculum to Ugandan learners — using LEGO® bricks, motorised models and guided experiments to make science, technology, engineering and mathematics tangible and genuinely fun.

Every lesson follows our edutainment philosophy: children build a working model, then discover the scientific principle behind it. Learning is spiral — concepts return at greater depth each term — so a six-year-old building a simple lever today is engineering a motorised, programmed machine a few years from now.

What students do

  • Design and build motorised LEGO models that demonstrate real physics and mechanics
  • Progress through age-banded courses: Big Builders, Algo Buddy, Robo Bricks, Bricks Challenge and Galileo Technique
  • Develop problem-solving, teamwork, presentation and early coding skills
  • Qualify for national robotics competitions and international Young Engineers events

Where it runs

School programmes, weekend clubs, holiday camps and our West Kampala centre. Talk to us about bringing Young Engineers to your school.
