The Engineering Design and Physics class at the Satellite Center of St. Charles Parish Public Schools, along with their facilitator, Stephen Johnston, participated in a field experience campus tour of the Engineering Department at the University of New Orleans. During their visit, coordinated by Gianna Cothren, Civil Engineering professor at UNO, team members explored the different types of engineering programs offered at UNO. At the end of the day, team members were given the opportunity to do hands-on projects focused on mechanical, electrical, civil and naval architecture and marine engineering, which were conducted by college students studying the different engineering fields.
