2024 Challenge Introduction
The purpose of this challenge is to give students an opportunity to explore several engineering fields used in the aerospace industry. This exploration is broad level and intended to help explain what each field may offer as a career. The challenge also is designed as a platform to find great new employees for our workforce. By participation in this challenge, students may be offered employment opportunities from partnering organizations.
This Challenge is designed for students currently enrolled in an academic program that are 16-19 years of age. Participants must be US citizens that can pass a drug and background check. Participants meeting these criteria can form teams of 1-6 members. Multiple teams can be formed from one school, but participants may only be registered with one team.
