Amazing Engineers invent things that amaze us in the moment. Think jaw-dropping space launch. But many of us take for granted much in this engineered world that is everyday amazing, like clean drinking water at the turn of a faucet. The annual Society of Women Engineers event will celebrate engineers and how they improve our lives through hands on experiences. The need for the next generation of practical inventors and innovators continues. Who will step up? Recommended for ages 6 and up.
Sponsored by Society of Women Engineers – New England Shoreline Section (SWE-NESS) with support from Brown University Collegiate SWE Section.
