Iron Range Engineering students planned and co-hosted the WE Break Barriers overnight high school event.
Last weekend, Jan 31- Feb 1, our Iron Range Engineering program students recently co-hosted with Mesabi and Itasca Community college the 4th annual WE Bareak Barriers overnight event for high school girls interested in engineering at Iron Range Engineering, Virginia, MN. This year's event was space themed and included activities such as an Escape Room, making ice cream, a rocket building and blastoff, and having the chance to interact and meet with women engineers from the industry. The girls were honored to Skype with, Melanie Saunders, NASA's deputy associate administrator, and Tanya Harrison, Founder and Chief Scientist of Professional Martian LLC.
