Aiken UVM Engineering Week
February 15, 2020 - February 22, 2020
The UVM Aiken Engineering Week brings together the wider Burlington community to explore, celebrate, and tackle challenges around engineering and STEM. The UVM Aiken Engineering Week will take place from February 15, 2020 – February 22, 2020 in coordination with National Engineering Week and will serve as the host for several high-profile events related to engineering outreach. Current planned events are the Aiken Challenge Girl Scouts and Scouts in Engineering Day, the FIRST Robotics Challenge, and the Aiken Engineering Week Public Lecture. Throughout this week we will bring together a community of K-12 students, teachers, UVM faculty and students, and the broader community to engage in hands-on engineering activities and learn more about the amazing engineering projects happening in our own city. In addition to our in-person activities, we will be launching a social media campaign during the UVM Aiken Engineering Week that showcases a diversity of voices in engineering with daily posts that highlight local and global engineers that have made a significant impact on our community. Aiken Engineering week will be a part of UVM STEM month which will host several STEM events such as Math Counts and the Vermont Science Olympiad competition.
