ENGR 0715 - Engineering Applications for Society

Spring 2008 Projects

Development of an Engineering Education Video

Community Partner: Middle School Educators

Team:


Eric Workman, Kareem Kandil, Robert Kosarowich, Jennifer Kay

Problem Statement:

For our project, we filmed a video geared toward middle school students to explain the different aspects of and possible careers in engineering. The video offers insight and explanation through interviews with current engineers, professors and students to show the many opportunities available in engineering and clarifies common misconceptions. We hope to show the video to middle school students so that they may consider engineering for their futures at an earlier age.
