Engineering students had the privilege of helping 4th and 5th grade students at Central Arkansas Christian School as the students constructed and built devices to move a paperclip 7ft to a target. What creative kids we worked with! Thank you CACS!

It's been a busy few weeks in the department! Last week Mr. Chris Hardman and his crew from Engineering Design Services LLC showed us how they use LIDAR to model existing structures and aide in designing. This week, Mr. Earl Mott from Garver spoke to our students about Garver and opportunities for engineers. Thank you all for investing in our students!
