Making Jack-o-Lanterns with Chemistry!
This is a chemical reaction illustrating the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide with a Halloween flair. The students came up with the idea to have a Halloween experiment and practiced measuring skills by measuring out the metric amounts required for the reaction. The reaction vessel that the students chose was a carved pumpkin. They also assisted in "scooping" out the pumpkin.

Principles of Engineering Drawbridges!
Our Principles of Engineering students just completed their Civil Engineering unit with an incredible hands-on project — designing and building hydraulic-powered drawbridges! Using the principles of hydraulics, teamwork, and creative design, students constructed working models that demonstrate how fluid power can move large structures with precision. The results were amazing!
