Building engineers of the future
Every Tuesday afternoon, an undergraduate from WUSTL’s School of Engineering & Applied Science heads back to middle school. Nick
Okafor leads the after-school Young Engineers Club at Brittany Woods
Middle School in University City. N’Desha Scott, a sophomore majoring in
biomedical engineering, started the club last fall as a way to reach
out to middle school students from groups traditionally underrepresented
in the science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) fields.
