Deakin Engineering Roadshow

Students in Years 7 to 10 had the opportunity to participate in the Deakin Engineering Roadshow. Guided by students from the Deakin Uni School of Engineering, students worked through a series of hands-on challenges. They built earthquake proof buildings that they tested on a "shake-table", they built wind turbines to harness the power of wind, they built bridges that had to stand the test of destructive winds and heavy weight, and they battled it out in teams in a robot relay race in which they had to control robots to complete a series of tasks. Eyes were opened to the opportunities within the many fields of engineering, and great fun was had by all.
