Engineering

Our practicing bridge engineers will share their knowledge and passion for structural engineering, which draws on math, physics, design, art, materials, and construction. In addition to illustrative exhibits, we provide an engaging hands-on model bridge building activity that is designed to introduce youth of all ages to basic structural engineering concepts. Bridge model kits are used, consisting of paint-mixing sticks, binder clips, chains, S-hooks, and large bottles of water for load testing.

Con Communications will host the "IP Packet Blasters" activity. Our activity gives a hands on experience to youth educating them on how information travels through a fiber optic network.

The booth will focus on robotics and engineering with the use of Lego components. Students will use different components and learn how STEM is applied to each lego project that is used. Students will also be able to manipulate different projects with the use of block coding to have the lego build perform different functions. At the the booth, students will be exposed to video game design and the behind the scenes on how games come to life with the use of programming and coding.

A look at the design and manufacturing of composite aerospace products with focus on our key product line: nacelles (the structure that surrounds an airplane's engines).

We are the world’s #1 summer tech camp for kids and teens ages 6 – 18! At iD Tech, we offer day & overnight summer camps for aspiring programmers, app developers, video game designers, engineers, filmmakers, photographers, and more. Courses are led by tech-savvy, adult-only staff in a fun, energetic and experiential environment. In addition to providing entertaining and age-appropriate activities, our STEM summer camps are loaded with original, real-world curriculum and professional software.

Northrop Grumman employees will be conducting hands-on STEM learning activities and talking with visitors about engineering.

1. Liquid Density Experiment which will have a poster describing what density is and an experiment to compare the densities of common household liquids by using liquid droppers to stack the different liquids in conical tubes.
2. Process Modeling Visualizations which will have computer visualizations of process models used in BP.

Coding with Kids offers After School Programs, Camps and Center Classes to students K-12!
