The PTA in Clear Lake is at it again…

…bringing out engineers to show students the different types of jobs engineers do and inviting students from throughout the Houston area to come and see if it's something they might be interested in. This is the 5th year they've put this event together.

They have reps from Aerospace, Biomedical, Chemical, Environmental Clean-Up, Industrial, Infrastructure (electricity, water, transportation), Oil & Gas, and much more!

There are over 150 engineers signed up from 30+ companies and 7 universities. The universities are sending researchers not recruiters. Come see the cool stuff happening at Rice's biomed department or the Robotics lab from UH-Clear Lake.

There will be demos of tools and equipment, like Hilti Industrial tools and Blacklion Solar Power. Some combine their hobbies in their display, like the nuclear engineer who does environmental clean up but blacksmiths in his spare time who will be bringing and displaying his forge.

It's happening tomorrow (February 1st) from 9am-noon at Clear Lake High School (2929 Bay Area Blvd, Houston, 77058).
