An Engineer changes the world around
them by making creative, practical
solutions to life’s problems using math
and science.
An Engineer works with other smart,
inspiring people to invent, design, and
create things that matter.
What is an Engineer?

Curiosity
Creativity
Teamwork
Opportunities
Helping Others
These are five important ideas about
engineers and their work.

Safety
over all of this,
we lay SAFETY!
Engineers are responsible with how they use, store, and maintain their equipment so
that neither they nor the people with whom they work get hurt
What we do: In this class we will be
safely making several
different projects in
our production lab.
We use the
Engineering Design
Process to try to get
our projects right the
first time, meeting the
needs of the original
problem.

Typical Projects:
racecarbirdhouse
penpuzzle

Like the process says, before we build, we
design!You will learn how to draw with paper, AutoCAD, & Inventor
6
Then, we use various hand and power
tools to bring our design ideas to life!

What have I done?
I’m an Engineer and worked for Trane (HVAC equipment)
I’ve taught the engineering
design process to students
ranging in ages from college
to preschool.

If you’re ready to apply math &
science to make useful things…
