Inspire 2025: E³ Teamwork and Leadership in Engineering (July 21-25)

About the Program

This course engages students in the fundamental principles of engineering and sociotechnical thinking while developing critical leadership and teamwork skills. Students will engage in accessibility focused engineering challenges to develop skills in applying the engineering design process and mindsets to solve a series of challenges. Through each activity, students will build their understanding of how engineers must work collaboratively to make a meaningful impact. Additionally, students will engage in specific leadership and teamwork principles and perspectives, practice each individually in the context of an experiential challenge, and then work to integrate all three to solve larger more complex problems. The ultimate goal is for students to actively integrate the engineering design process, leadership, and teamwork.

This class is part of E³: Exploring Engineering Essentials. The UVA School of Engineering and Applied Science has created a series of classes that can be taken individually or together to help aspiring engineers learn more about the foundations of engineering and what is possible when you apply the same framework to different topics. 

This is an in-person course that meets daily in Fairfax, 9am – 4pm EST. Tuition cover materials, meals (lunch/snacks), and transportation to any offsite excursions.
