YMCA of Metropolitan Dallas Virtual STEM Week Presents: Fluor Engineering Virtual Challenge &amp; Competition!

The YMCA of Metropolitan Dallas is offering a Virtual STEM Week for all ages in honor of Earth Day during the week of April 20th - 24th. In partnership with Fluor Engineering we are providing a virtual challenge and competition for all to participate. The challenges will have three phases: the Design, Experiment, and Competition Phase. Participants must attend the instructional workshop using Microsoft Teams Meeting as a learning platform. During the meeting, participants will be provided detailed instructions, helpful links and videos, and access to a Fluor representative to ask questions and learn more about their work in engineering. Our objective is to provide students extended learning opportunities to continue fostering innovation and creativity. Listed below is the schedule for workshops and supply list to prepare prior to the meeting. Will you take the challenge and compete? Let's experiment together!
