Lyle Engineering - Visioneering 2008 - Short Version

How will NASA handle a medical emergency during a manned mission to Mars? That's the question 1,000 Dallas-area middle school students worked to answer when they visited the SMU campus Feb. 16, 2008, to take part in Visioneering 2008.

Held each year on the campus of Southern Methodist University by the Lyle School of Engineering, Visioneering brings together students, working engineers, innovators, and noted national figures from a variety of industries and businesses to celebrate the ways that engineering makes a difference in the world around us. It gives students the opportunity to play engineer for the day!

The popular is geared to showing the next generation of technology innovators - today's 6th, 7th and 8th graders - the fun, excitement and challenge of engineering. A combination design contest and technology expo, Visioneering also has become a cornerstone of the Lyle Engineering's National Engineers Week celebration.
