This is National Engineers Week
20 febbraio 2007
Posted by Shannon Madison, Instructional Designer
It's that time of year: to
celebrate the engineers
who create the new technologies that revolutionize our world. Their work changes the way we work, play, learn, and communicate with each other.
As part of our ongoing commitment to raise awareness of these contributions (here's more on our
our K-12 initiatives
), and to get young students interested in engineering, we're hosting a
Introduce a Girl to Engineering Day
on February 22nd in several of our U.S. offices, including New York, Kirkland, and our headquarters in Mountain View.
Hundreds of middle-school girls will come to these offices this week to buddy up with an engineer, attend interactive workshops, take a tour, and, of course, have lunch. (Just like last year - see photo.)
Here's hoping the day will spark the interest of these young women to learn more about science, math and engineering -- and maybe even inspire them to pursue engineering studies, so that they too can change our lives. Here's
more for students
to do, and
a page for teachers
too.
