Program areas at DiscoverE

Education outreach:engineers Week - this is Discovere's signature program and catalyst for volunteerism and public discussion about the future of engineering as well as for public understanding and recognition of Engineers' contributions. All colleges of engineering in the u.s. Celebrate Engineers Week and it is part of a multitude of workplace cultures. A new Engineers Week theme each year helps drive the look and content for volunteer resources, media messages and special events. In reality, Engineers Week outreach occurs over several months.introduce a girl to engineering day - founded in 2001, introduce a girl to engineering encourages Engineers, particularly women, to make the world of engineering come alive for girls. Since its inception, the program has allowed an estimated one million girls to experience engineering firsthand each year, with more than 100 organizations participating annually.world engineering day - while many countries celebrate their own National engineering days, weeks, or months throughout the year, Discovere launched the first annual global day of the engineer in 2016 as a way to collectively recognize Engineers worldwide. In 2020, this global celebration was renamed world engineering day as a joint venture with unesco and wfeo to highlight Engineers' achievements around the world and improve the public understanding of the importance of engineering and technology.the persist series - Discovere produces inspiring live and on-demand sessions where women in engineering and technology candidly share their personal stories, discuss how to navigate workplace challenges, and debate tactics to help them stay and advance in the field.chats with change makers - our monthly series "chats with change makers", hosted by high school junior tiffany, introduces students to stem professionals who are working hard to change the world. Teachers and parents are invited to tune-in along with their students to meet an engineer and ask questions. At the end of each session, the engineer guest issues a hands-on stem challenge that kids can do away from their screens.
Future city competition:the Discovere future city competition is a project-based learning program where students in 6th, 7th, and 8th grades imagine, research, design, and build cities of the future. More than 60,000 middle school students in more than 1,200 schools from 40 regions across the u.s. join in one of the nation's largest engineering education programs and one of the most successful educational outreach programs of any kind. Notably, approx. 7,500 Engineers volunteer for the competition and about 225,000 service hours are given annually to Discovere programs.future city invites students working under the guidance of teachers and volunteer Engineers to build computer and three-dimensional scale models of cities of tomorrow. Students defend their designs before a panel of engineer judges and write an essay on a predetermined topic. Students begin their work in the fall and participate in regional competitions in january. First place regional teams win a trip to Washington, d.c. for National finals during National Engineers Week.
