Students take apart a common water pump, put it back together and then test it. Discover the different strengths of materials, metals, woods, plastics, and concrete through scientific testing procedures. Learn how to determine material failure causes. Disassemble and then re-assemble the inside of a working computer. The payment reserves the student's enrollment.
