Hands-on science museums for helping kids discover the fun and excitement of science and technology. Future Scientists and Engineers of America. An after-school design program. Engineers, scientists, and teachers help students develop design project. Awards are provided for Outstanding Student Engineering Project at the Orange County Science and Engineering Fair.
Planning is underway to develop a series of professionalism courses for undergraduate engineers.
Professional Engineers would relate career experiences to help students understand the wide range of possibilities facing them and help them plan for the facts of a career which might not be amenable to normal classroom activities. OCEC, in cooperation with local colleges, presents awards for outstanding engineering students. The goal of each program is to encourage students to find the joys of science and engineering. All these programs need volunteer engineers to work with students and teachers. Please join in this important work and encourage your colleagues to participate.
