INVESTING NOW Engineering Projects 2011-16
We have partnered with INVESTING NOW, a college preparatory program created to stimulate, support, and recognize the high academic performance of pre-college students from groups that are underrepresented in engineering.  Students learned about basic engineering, sustainability, solar power, wind power, and water conservation.  Students took part in various hands-on engineering projects such as rubber band cars, passive heating techniques, and biosand filter.  Various projects were taken from the Thames and Kosmos Physics Solar Workshop and the Thames and Kosmos Power House Green Essentials kit.  Over 150 students have participated.

Pitt Engineering Career Access Program (PECAP)

Dr. Paul Leu and Dr. Albert To have run workshops for over 50 high schoolers.  The workshop covered topics such as "How small is a nanometer?", atoms, states of matter, and basic nanomaterials.  We have also introduced solar power to high school students.
