What We do

Bringing STEM to Life Through Hands-On Learning

At Third Gear Innovators, we believe in learning by doing. Our programs are designed to provide students with real-world experience in mechanical engineering, automotive design, and problem-solving—all through the exciting process of building and modifying kit cars.

🔧 Hands-On Workshops

Students roll up their sleeves and dive into real engineering projects by assembling and modifying kit cars from the ground up. These workshops cover:

  • ✔ Mechanical Systems – Understanding engines, transmissions, and vehicle dynamics.
  • ✔ Electrical & Electronics – Wiring, battery systems, and modern vehicle technology.
  • ✔ Design & Customization – Learning aerodynamics, materials science, and creative problem-solving.

🚗 STEM Outreach & Education

We partner with schools, community centers, and STEM organizations to bring hands-on learning to students who may not have access to engineering programs. Through demonstrations, mentorship, and classroom visits, we inspire young minds to explore careers in engineering, robotics, and automotive technology.

🤝 Mentorship & Career Pathways

Learning doesn't stop at the workshop. We connect students with engineers, mechanics, and industry professionals who provide:

  • ✔ Guidance on STEM careers in automotive, aerospace, and mechanical engineering.
  • ✔ Internship and scholarship opportunities to further their education and hands-on experience.

Why It Matters

  • 🔹 Bridges the gap between theory and practice – Students apply classroom knowledge to real-world challenges.
  • 🔹 Encourages creativity and problem-solving – Every car built is a lesson in critical thinking.
  • 🔹 Prepares students for the future – Hands-on experience gives them a competitive edge in STEM careers.
