MCE Summer Camp Students Visit CIVS

On July 6, over 20 high school students visited CIVS to learn the state-of-the-art technologies in simulation & visualization and their applications. This is part of activities of the one-week engineering summer camp for high school students hosted by the by the PNW Department of Mechanical and Civil Engineering.

CIVS Senior Research Engineer Nick Walla and CIVS Graduate Research Assistants presented an overview of CIVS and impacts on the engineering industry and community. They also gave hands-on demonstrations of simulation and visualization applications as well as hands-on VR experiences. Students had the opportunity to ask questions and have lively discussions to make connections between their current curriculum and the cutting-edge applications at CIVS. MCE summer camp students also participated in interactive lab and classroom activities at PNW in both mechanical and civil engineering. The summer camp was led by Associate Professor of Civil Engineering, Wubeshet Woldemariam.
