Hi Sherrie,
Can you send out a request to the faculty and grad student lists that we are looking for PhD students or faculty to act as judges for the Project Lead the Way Capstone Event that is being held at Dallara on April 30? Aiming for representatives from BME, ECE, and ME/MSPE.
Event Details:
The Capstone Event showcases the learning, creativity, and technical skill of high school seniors in Project Lead The Way Engineering and Biomedical Sciences pathways. Students have spent the school year working on authentic industry challenges provided by business and industry partners. This event allows them to present their solutions, receive meaningful feedback, and potentially connect with mentors and work‑based learning opportunities.
