Description:

It isn’t a 4-H Summer without engineering challenges. This summer is no different. Every week we will have an engineering challenge, from mechanical engineering, to environmental engineering, to biomedical engineering, and acoustical engineering. We will meet together through Zoom to learn about the fundamentals of engineering, how to apply those to real world problems, and use critical thinking to design, construct, and refine our solutions. Then participants will have a week to use the supplies in the kits they will receive to engineer their own solution to the challenge.


Our first challenge is INVASION OF THE TOADS!!!

Register Here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/112691356882
Pre-registration is required the evening before the program begins.

Invasion of the Toads
We will be learning about how invasive non-native species affect the native and environment, and exploring how mechanical engineers can help capture and control invasive species. We will begin by designing traps for an invasive species of toads.
