Building our Wildcat Engineers!

Our WILDCATS were off to great start after this afternoon’s Engineers of the Future meeting class time! Over the past couple of weeks our team of future engineers have been getting to know each other and all the great things Engineers of the Future has to offer. Our students have been able to get themselves familiar with what it takes to become an engineer and the endless possibilities each student can achieve.

We got to finally have some real hands on experience when school mentor Anne Gibbons joined students in week 5 of our program. The moment all of our students have been waiting for…. it’s finally time to go over Project 1! Anne was able to get all our students excited about our first project the Transit Stop where students were able to learn about scale and the ways engineers start the design process. Students were actually able to draw out the scale size of the project and what it means to start the iterative design. Engineering has actually started and our students are using the methods!

Our students are off to great start of the Engineers of the Future program and will continue to work on their first Transit Stop designs in order to get working for Project 1. We can’t wait to see what our WILDCATS have in store for the project!
