The Kids Are (More Than) Alright: High School Challenge

From all over Hamilton,

High school students came to the McMaster Automotive Resource Centre to participate in McMaster EcoCAR's first-ever high school challenge! Students researched and prepared a presentation for one of three case-based competitions.

Starting early in the day at 9AM and running to mid-afternoon, students first learned about the vast opportunities in the automotive field and heard from current McMaster Engineering students and EcoCAR members. Students then created a slideshow presentation in small groups for one of the solutions design challenges, ranging from materials to chemical engineering, demonstrating unique creativity in their solutions and presentations. The event was hosted by the leads of the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion sub-team of McMaster EcoCAR.
