The Okayest Engineer
The Okayest Engineer channel is all about engineering, problem-solving, and figuring things out on the fly. From detailed walkthroughs and technical insights to creative solutions and unexpected challenges, he shares every step of the journey to (hopefully) take flight.
Whether you’re an aviation enthusiast, a fellow maker, or just curious about what it takes to build a helicopter at home, there’s something there for you.
SAE International
For over 40 years SAE International has been working hard to provide un-paralleled pre-professional education to college age students across the world. Our well-known and well-loved Collegiate Design Series (CDS) has paved the way for countless young professionals as they entered the workforce. In recent years we have expanded our programming to include the newly developed Emerging Technology Series (ETS) to address rapidly changing industry needs and skillsets. Through both series, SAE has carefully crafted programs with the intention to develop soft skills, foster teamwork, expand critical thinking, and address the specific needs of the mobility industry today.Visit their site here.
Formula Hybrid + Electric
Founded and run by the Thayer School of Engineering at Dartmouth since 2006, Formula Hybrid takes place each spring at the New Hampshire Motor Speedway in Loudon, NH. The competition is part of the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) Collegiate Design Series and is regarded as the most complex and dynamic of the series.
The Formula Hybrid competition is an interdisciplinary design and engineering challenge for undergraduate and graduate university students. They must collaboratively design and build a formula-style hybrid or electric-only racecar and compete in a series of events. This educational competition emphasizes drivetrain innovation and fuel efficiency in a high-performance application. Visit their site here.
The International Rocket Engineering Competition (IREC)
The International Rocket Engineering Competition (IREC) is the largest collegiate rocketry competition in the world. The goal of this competition is to launch a scientific payload to a target altitude from 10,000–45,000 feet. Teams are encouraged to develop innovative solutions to real-world problems while following competition safety standards.
Competitors are challenged to design, manufacture, integrate, and launch their rockets. Teams are also able to practice both technical and communication skills, as they are required to analyze, document, and present their findings to a group of judges. Through this process, competitors learn from both their successes and failures, teaching them valuable lessons for their future careers.
Students from 24 different countries have traveled far and wide to compete in the IREC. These students come from a variety of majors and backgrounds, providing unique perspectives and approaches to solve the challenges of each category in the competition.
Competitors take the lessons they learn and the relationships they make with them through the rest of their lives. Supporting this event helps to develop the engineers of our future.
