Engineering Expo_08
The West Point Chapter of the National Society of Black Engineers invited seventh graders from M.S. 223 in the Bronx to the Engineering Expo April 28 to learn more about engineering concepts from cadets and instructors. There, inside a Thayer Hall classroom, they designed bridges, operated robots and learned thermometer design. It wouldn’t always be easy, but it was fun. This was the second year the NSBE hosted this STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) outreach workshop. In addition, students visited the West Point Simulations Center to see how Soldiers are using technology to advance their training capabilities.Photo by Mike Strasser, West Point Public Affairs
