ECHO

ECHO - Engineers Connecting with High Schools through Outreach is a model designed to teach high school students the advantages of a strong foundation in mathematics and science.  The sessions focus on Aerospace Engineering, Robotics, and Technology.  Recognizing the importance of science and mathematics to career success, The Jordan Foundation chose to develop the series to provide youth with career awareness on the work of NASA.   During the seminars students will participate in team problem solving activates, NASA exploration goals and dialogue with science professionals.  Follow up sessions will be held in the areas of Robotics and Science Trends.  Students will also have a strong focus on hand-on activates to challenge youth on technology challenges.  This course is an innovative concept to prepare students for careers in science, technology and mathematics.

Topics include:

• Introduction to Science/Math
• Careers in Aerospace
• Careers in Robotics
