Engineering offers students a lens through which to view the role and impact of engineering within their classroom, community and the world.
Through the study of engineering, students will have the opportunity to behave as engineers, and develop an engineering mindset. The engineering process is both reflective and systematic. It is reflective in that students continually test their design and modify it based on what they have learned. It is systematic in that students undertake several characteristic steps in reaching a solution. Students identify problems, integrate ideas for how to solve identified problems, and try to improve the design or devise a better one.
The 3rd year Engineering project is always a hard task and this year was no different. Mr MacEoin is impressed with all these students for completing their projects to a fully completed and high standard. A special recognition should be made for Javier who only started Engineering this year and was completely new to the subject, he had to work very hard and put in some extra time to complete his project. We hope he enjoys this special souvenir of his time in the Engineering room.
