Meet Your Instructors
Reid
Hey there engineers in training! I'm Reid and I am an Electrical Engineering student here at Carleton. I love to learn new things and have fun at the same time. I can't wait for you all to show us your Engineering skills. See you soon!
Alexis
Howdy future engineers! My name is Alexis, I am going into my fourth year of Biomedical and Mechanical Engineering and am so excited to meet you this summer. We have a bunch of amazing activities to share and we can't wait to explore them with you.
