What is engineering@Home?

Engineering@Home consists of hands-on challenges that use everyday items to illustrate engineering and physics principles. Due to COVID-19, we cannot visit elementary and middle school students in-person, so we developed this program as a way to remotely continue our mission of spreading STEM education.
