Manor Elementary School Outreach Event

Siya Raj Purohit | Electrical and Computer Engineering 2014

The UTSVT team visited Manor Elementary School this afternoon to talk to students about solar energy and options in engineering.


We had the opportunity to talk to three grades about the car -- and what we believe, convince them that engineering is the way to go.

The next planned outreach event is MITE on the UT Campus. The team will be hosting two information sessions during the first two weeks of June.

MITE is a residential summer program for talented high school students which allows them to experience engineering in Texas through various lectures and hands-on events hosted by professors and student organizations. For more information, please visit: http://bit.ly/hA3qZz
