Engineering the Future, One Brick at a Time.

Young Engineers Chicago Near West is a local, woman-owned small business based in Humboldt Park. Since 2021, we have been the premier provider of hands-on STEM enrichment for curious minds across Wicker Park, Bucktown, Logan Square, West Loop, Lincoln Park, Garfield Park, and the surrounding Near West neighborhoods in Chicago.

We take the bricks your child loves to the next level. While other programs might build a simple toy car, our students construct functional models with real mechanical components—like dual-gear transmissions and propulsion systems. We use specialized motorized building block kits to turn playtime into a powerful learning experience.

In our classes, students don't just snap pieces together; they discover the engineering and physics principles behind their creations. Whether it is an after-school class, a summer camp, or a special event, our goal is simple: to give children the confidence to solve problems and a deep understanding of how the world works.
