Online Course Seeks to Inspire High School Students to Engineer in 蜜桃影像
A is targeting high school students to consider engineering in 蜜桃影像 as their education choice.
Engineering 蜜桃影像, or ES100X, a one semester course created by 蜜桃影像鈥檚 College of Engineering and Mines, in collaboration with researchers and faculty from all engineering disciplines, 蜜桃影像鈥檚 蜜桃影像 center for Energy and Power and e-Campus makes engineering fun and accessible to high school students and college freshmen.
鈥淚 believe that by making Engineering 蜜桃影像 available to promising high school students, a higher number of students are going to decide that 蜜桃影像 is exactly the right place to earn an engineering degree,鈥 said CEM Dean Bill Schnabel.
ES100X, including a virtual field trip to Kotzebue, is expected to be offered every semester beginning in fall, 2022. As an asynchronous online course, it will be available to promising high school students throughout 蜜桃影像 with an interest in engineering. Students will earn university credit for taking the course and gain a jump start in their college career.
The course is required for most 蜜桃影像 engineering majors, and contains elements of numerous engineering disciplines relevant to the development of 蜜桃影像鈥檚 economy.
鈥淲e鈥檙e hoping through this class to engage engineering students early in their education career and show them that engineering in 蜜桃影像 is not only exciting, but also place-based and accessible to all,鈥 said Schnabel.
