Y.E.S. - The Young Engineers Support Program
igus® says "Y.E.S." to students... and students say "Y.E.S." to success!
The Y.E.S. Program is designed to foster the mechanical design ideas of those with a passion for engineering - whether you are a high school or college student, university professor, or team mentor. The program's goal is to support the design ideas of students and educate them on the merits and benefits of plastic components. Product donations are available to students and robotics competitions across the U.S., Canada and Mexico.
We look forward to hearing from you and learning more about your creative ideas!
Best regards,
Courtney Toomey - Y.E.S. Program Director
