BLOG 83: Engineering Tomorrow — An Unbelievable (and 100% Free!) Opportunity for High Schools
Last week, I had the pleasure of leading an Advanced Placement teacher training course at Molloy University. During one of our sessions, a participant mentioned a friend who serves as the Lead Program Coordinator for Engineering Tomorrow and what followed was one of the most exciting discoveries of the week.
The teacher lit up with enthusiasm, and so did we, especially when she shared this incredible detail: the entire Engineering Tomorrow program is 100% free. No fees, no fine print, just an amazing opportunity for both teachers and students.
So what is it?
Engineering Tomorrow is a program designed to help high school students explore the world of engineering through hands-on, practical experiences facilitated by expert engineers and supported by college student mentors. It's an inspiring initiative that equips teachers with the tools they need to open new doors for their students, regardless of school budget.
Here’s how the program describes itself:
"Give students a new perspective on their futures with a virtual lab or Lab Day event.
Engineering Tomorrow labs introduce students to the world of engineering with the help of expert engineers and college student mentors at no cost to you or your students."
Why it’s worth checking out:
💰 No cost to your school
