The Engineering Machine Design Contest's Career Connections Series is an opportunity for 5th-12th grade students to engage with engineers and STEM professionals while they share about their career field, how they chose that career path, and what they enjoy about their careers.
A primary objective of the Engineering Machine Design Contest is to inspire an interest in engineering and related career pathways. The Career Connections Series serves that purpose, creating awareness of careers related to the year’s theme, as well as proving inspiration for Engineering Machine Design Contest teams as they work on their machine builds.
During the Career Connections Series, engineers and STEM professionals share about their career field, how they chose that career path, and what they enjoy about their careers. Students will have the opportunity to ask the professionals questions about their careers or anything related to the concept or construction of their chain reaction machine that the professional may help to provide insight on.
