Future City Competition – Call for Mentors

Support Future Engineers!

The Future City Competition is a project-based learning program for 6th through 8th grade students that introduces them to the principles of engineering while allowing them to use teamwork and creativity to solve problems that face the world. The program helps advance STEM learning in Middle Schools in our region and encourages students to consider careers in engineering. In recent years the regional competition has grown to include over 500 participating students and teachers in the Philadelphia area, but we are short on volunteer mentors. This is a great way to give back to the community and share your experience with the next generation of engineers!

Time Commitment – The schools in need of mentors could use any help you can offer! There are plenty of ways to help including Zoom/Teams or corresponding via email. Normally, the teachers could use help every other week for the first month or two, then more frequently as deadlines approach.

Schedule – Mentors are needed as soon as possible as these schools are already working towards their first deliverables in mid-December. The competition will be held in on January 18, 2025 at Archbishop Carroll High School.

Any questions please contact me via e-mail or phone.
