A Shodor Education Foundation SUCCEED Workshop
Engineers in Training Engineers in Training

Science is understanding and comprehending
the world around us (from the Latin  sciere: "to know")

Engineering is shaping the world to our needs
(from the Latin  ingenarere: "to create")

Engineers in Training is a sequence of workshops designed to introduce motivated middle-school students to the design process of modern engineering through the exploration and development of small scale systems. Participants develop techniques in the measurement and collection of experimental data, the use of computational models to process scientific data and aid design, and the construction of engineered systems.

Exploratory Engineering:
Trial,Error and the Scientific Method		 Takes Two to Topple
In Straws We Trussed
Measurement and
Optimization		 Measure to Measure
Laboratory Experimentation
with Controlled Systems		 Beam Me Down!
The Engineering Process:
Data Acquisition, Modeling,
and Design		 The Daredevil Design Project
