Young Scholars in Engineering

多特学院将为 30 名 8-9 年级的学生启动为期两周的通勤青年学者工程项目。 该项目的目的是激励学生将工程学视为职业目标。 该项目包括一系列协调一致的讲座和实验室体验，激发学生对工程的兴趣，培养必要的技能和才能，并告知学生攻读工程学位所需的基本高中课程。 合作行业的实地考察加强了课堂活动。 学生被分配一个项目，要求他们运用在课堂、实验室和工作场所所学到的知识。 学年后续活动展示了已完成的项目，并为同学们将来参加研讨会提供动力。

The Dordt College will initiate a two-week, commuter, Young Scholars project in engineering for 30 students in grades 8-9. The purpose of this project is to motivate students to consider engineering as a vocational goal. The project includes a series of coordinated lectures and laboratory experiences which stimulate the students' interest in engineering, develop the necessary skills and talents, and inform the students as to the essential high school courses required to pursue an engineering degree. Field trips to cooperating industries reinforce classroom activities. Students are assigned a project which requires them to use what they have learned in the classroom, laboratory, and workplace. The academic year follow-up activities demonstrate completed projects, and provide motivation for peers to pursue the workshop in the future.
