Engineers Week 2021 will run from February 21 to 27. This year’s theme -- Imagining Tomorrow -- recognizes the role engineers play in developing solutions to combat climate change, secure cyberspace, develop vaccines, and make the world a better place for all of us. This Engineers Week we hope that you’ll take a moment to recognize and celebrate the work of engineers and engage students in engineering. OEF is hosting our 40th Annual Engineering Fair virtually this Wednesday and we are so excited to see students across the state working to put the "E" in STEM education! Additionally, our partners at DiscoverE.org have free resources you can use to inspire future innovators, such as hands-on engineering activities and lesson plans, information about engineering education, and pathways to technical careers.

The 40th Annual Engineering Fair is going virtual to ensure the safety of our students, teachers, and volunteers. Be sure to check out the available competitions and their rules by visiting: http://oef.org/programs/engineering-fair/contest-rules
