At the TryEngineering Summer Institute, we take learning beyond the classroom and into the real world! With exclusive field trips, we offer students a unique opportunity to explore cutting-edge technology and gain insights from industry professionals. For a glimpse of what we offer, take a look at the field trips we provided for the 2024 TryEngineering Summer Institute sessions:
On the East Coast, the TryEngineering Summer Institute was hosted at The University of Pennsylvania, located in Philadelphia. Participants were treated to a field trip with the South Eastern Pennsylvania Transportation Association (SEPTA), through their partnership with AECOM. Students toured SEPTA’s facilities, learning about the engineering behind public transportation systems and the innovative projects aimed at improving urban mobility.
In Houston, Texas, students attended the TryEngineering Summer Institute at the historic Rice University. While participating at Rice, students visited Space Center Houston, where former astronauts introduced the students to the world and history of aerospace engineering and space exploration. The field trip included interactive exhibits, and a firsthand look at the technologies used in space missions, and information about the latest advancements in space technology.
The University of San Diego, located in California, also hosted the TryEngineering Summer Institute. Participants enjoyed a visit to Qualcomm, where they learned about cutting-edge technology and toured the Qualcomm museum. They explored the company’s innovations in wireless technology, participated in hands-on activities, and had the opportunity to interact with engineers working on the latest tech developments.
