Inside the Program

WSU expands high school engineering education

A new program initiated by WSU's National Institute for Aviation Research teaches high schoolers how to use computer-aided design software.

It's the primary software used by Wichita manufacturers and is widely used across the world.

Students will be more prepared for applied learning opportunities once they enter college.
