Lehigh’s STEM Squad: Helping kids discover the wonder of engineering
Description
Chayah Wilburs has a knack for getting young kids excited about all things engineering. She’s the program manager for the P.C. Rossin College of Engineering and Applied Science, and the head of the college’s newest outreach initiative, the STEM Squad. In this episode, Chayah talks about how she turns preschoolers into little coders, gets middle schoolers amped up about careers in space, and how she’s helping Lehigh students develop educational tools that will help local teachers meet new requirements in STEM education. Plus, you’ll hear from Lehigh faculty who bring their research into area schools and science fairs, and a sixth-grade science educator who sees huge potential in having Lehigh students visit his classroom.
Rossin Connection is hosted and produced by Christine Fennessy, with support from the Dean's office at the P.C. Rossin College of Engineering and Applied Science.
