Dr. Bonnie Dunbar, Director, Higher Education and STEM at Boeing discussed supply side challenges for post-secondary education and business needs. She shared findings from national studies that have tracked a lack of engineers from the United States for years. To solve that problem it is about increasing the number of seats in engineering schools.
16 girls spent a day at Accenture's offices, working on mobile apps to a 'Flood in Beckenham' brief.
These students from Kashmere, North Early College, and Wheatley High Schools worked in cooperative groups to solve a real world problem. Each group of 3 to 4 students posed as an engineering firm that would submit a robotics solution to a geophysics problem. Teams used the LEGO Mindstorm NXT robot to design a vehicle that could climb to the top of a Mountain to retrieve rocks that stored energy. Their vehicle should be able to climb the mountain and continue its motion as the slope of the mountain increased. The team whose robot climbed the highest would win the bid with my company.
