From John Kowalchik:
Lockheed Martin in conjunction with the Boy Scouts of America (Learning for Life) operates an Engineering Explorer Post here at our Sunnyvale facility. This year we had about 50 future engineers and scientists in the program, and we’ve seen one of our past graduates return as a summer intern this year! We’d like the opportunity to talk about the program in order to encourage other Bay Area companies to consider Exploring as a potential STEM activity. The BSA makes all the logistics very easy and we simply administer the program via our staff engineering folks. It turns out that we’re the one and only Engineering Explorer Post in the entire Silicon Valley Monterey Bay area. We’d like to see more.
The Silicon Valley Engineering Council, the alliance for engineering leaders in the Silicon Valley, serves as a collective focus to support your professional engineering organization and to serve the needs of your membership and the engineering education community in the San Francisco Bay Area.
