Our Mission

This will be accomplished by:

 

  • Fostering engineering skills, such as teamwork, communication and problem solving skills;
  • Providing interaction among students, teachers, and engineer mentors;
  • Informing the community about the multi-disciplines within the engineering profession;
  • Inspiring students to explore futuristic concepts and careers in engineering.

 

The National Engineers Week Future City Competition requires:

 

  • Problem-solving
  • Team work
  • Research and presentation skills
  • Practical math and science applications
  • Computer skills

 

The competition employs a team-based approach. All members of the team have an important role that is necessary for the completion of the project.
