Snack Pack Assembly
Participants will be split into groups of 4 to improve the productivity and efficiency of an assembly line by decorating and packaging cookies and other snacks to learn about the role of industrial engineers.
Newton’s Rocket Car
Participants will use the SWE agilent kits (on SWE HQ website) to create their own rocket cars to take home!
Breathtaking Models
Students will explore the process of breathing and investigate two models that help to visualize and explain the process. Students will build and experiment with a couple of different models that depict the process of breathing. They will explore the lungs and create some very engaging models of the breathing process.
