Inspire the problem solvers of tomorrow by teaching high school students all about engineering. We aren’t talking about only the small group of students who may have career goals of becoming an engineer. The fundamentals of engineering can benefit students of all interests, abilities, and backgrounds. To make this possible the Engineer Your World program was developed by a team including University of Texas faculty, secondary teachers, and NASA engineers. This national, standards-based solution provides a low-cost, high-quality, design-based high school engineering program that can be implemented in virtually any high school setting.

The goal was to create a program that would allow any student to learn from and get the advantage of understanding an engineering approach to problem-solving. Understanding the mindset of an engineer provides students with the tools to become resilient problem solvers! This is an important life skill that can improve the quality of their lives. Yes, it may encourage them to pursue a career in this field. But, the truth is, this will make them more successful in whatever path they chose. Engineer Your World is a high school course designed to mold the future of engineering education.

Engineer the Problem Solvers of Tomorrow

Your students can thrive when you teach them how to use authentic engineering practices in a project-based environment. With a series of socially relevant design challenges, you can engage them and build an understanding of key STEM concepts. The program’s approach will inspire students to become the problem solvers of tomorrow.

Engineer Your World is designed by experts and committed to teachers. They offer exceptional teacher support to assist them in creating successful programs. Their adaptable courses can be used as a stand-alone course or used to expand, start, or improve existing STEM pathways. Affordable and designed to be successful in virtually all schools, this exciting program gives students authentic engineering experiences and exposes them to habits of mind that will benefit them whichever career path they choose.

Engineering Design & Analysis Course 

This EYW course immerses students in authentic engineering practices. It is designed to help the students think like engineers. Build resilient problem-solving skills by encouraging collaboration with student-directed projects. Empower your students to think like engineers, adopt processes, and pursue engineering disciplines. This is the foundational course in the program.

This course teaches students:

• How engineers design
• How to make data-driven decisions
• How to effectively use programming and system design

Engineering Applications of Computer Science Course

Designed as a stand-alone course, or to follow the Engineering Design and Analysis Course, Engineering Applications of Computer Science combines project-based, socially relevant design challenges to provide an introduction to key computing principles. Students explore electrical, mechanical, and biomedical engineering. Students are immersed in tasks that build their skills in computational thinking and programming.

Students who complete both courses are prepared to move on to a variety of pathways that include design, engineering, robotics, and computer science.
