Santa Rosa Engineering Class Visits MAKE

Santa Rosa Engineering Class Visits MAKE

Last week, students from Santa Rosa Junior College’s Introduction to Engineering Profession class stopped by MAKE’s lab. Many of the students are unsure of which type of engineering they’d like to go into in the future and the class allows them to get their feet wet in multiple disciplines, as well as go on a few awesome field trips. Although many engineering college curriculums are lacking in the hands-on department, we think that being able to make things is an extremely important skill for high school and college students alike.
