Step into the role of future engineers as students imagine, design, and build a next-generation city built for real-world challenges. Throughout the week, they’ll explore what makes a city “smart,” from transportation and green energy to sustainability, accessibility, and community spaces. Using the engineering design process, students will brainstorm, sketch, test ideas, and work together to construct a collaborative 3D model of their future-ready city. Along the way, they’ll learn beginner-friendly architectural and engineering concepts while solving problems with creativity and teamwork.
