More Information
Future City is an educational engineering experience and there are also awesome prizes that teams can win!
Throughout the fall, participants work in teams of at least three students, an educator, and volunteer mentor to bring their vision of their future city to life.
They will imagine what it’s like to walk down the main street of a city 100 years in the future. What do they see, hear, smell, and feel? From this starting point, they will design a futuristic city with innovative solutions to some of today’s most pressing sustainability issues.
As the middle school students create their cities, they will:
Use the engineering design process and project management steps to take on a large-scale project;
Apply their math and science knowledge to a real-world problem;
Strengthen their teamwork and problem-solving skills;
And more!
Created for middle schoolers in or out of the classroom, Future City combines the engineer design process (EDP) with project management to imagine, research, design, and build cities of the future.
