Featuring more than 30 experts from Jefferson Lab, NASA Langley Research Center in Hampton and Newport News Shipbuilding, the event exposed Hampton Roads high schoolers and their teachers to the vast array of engineering and related disciplines — mechanical, chemical, aerospace, nuclear, electrical, to name a few. It also tested students’ wits with hands-on design and engineering challenges based on each facility’s mission.
The event is a celebration of National Engineers Week and is sponsored by the Peninsula Engineers Council (PEC).
