Dream Big Movie
This 2017 movie was made in partnership with the American Society of Civil Engineers. It conveys how engineering is about identifying and solving problems with ingenuity, creativity and heart! Engineering Next highly recommends this movie, which we were thrilled to view at the IMAX premiere at the San Jose Tech Museum of Innovation (also worth exploring when in Silicon Valley)!
National Academy of Engineering - EngineerGirl
EngineerGirl has a great page on engineering scholarships, and engineering careers in general, including several role models. Engineering Next is honored to serve as an ongoing judge for the EngineerGirl Essay Contest, and we remain truly inspired by the innovations of so many intelligent, creative, socially aware, and forward-thinking future engineers!
