Textron Systems Team Wins Big Stem Challenge

May 30, 2018

In May, Greg Dubicki, Shannon Dubicki, Jenny Harper, Ken Powers and Melinda Saraullo of Textron Systems competed in a local Corporate Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) Challenge event hosted by Junior Achievement of South Central Pennsylvania. The challenge was divided up into five areas of competition: Electrical, Relay, Math, Civil Engineering, and Robotics.

Points are awarded based on assignments completed in the time allotted. After a day filled with difficult challenges, the Textron Systems team won first place in both the Electrical Competition and Civil Engineering Competition, second place in the Relay Competition and were selected as the overall winners of the STEM challenge. Congratulations to our winners!

 

The math competition is made up of four activities that involve geometry and mathematics. Time is allotted for each activity and points are awarded for a total score in each area.
