Merit Badge Day
Event Type: K-12 Outreach Hours
TBP actives and electees worked closely with boy scouts from local troops, helping the scouts earn four STEM-focussed merit badges: engineering, computers, programming, and technology. Members of Tau Beta Pi participated in fun and engaging activities with the Scouts, teaching them how to program and use Arduino boards while also encouraging their curiosity and interest in STEM-related fields. The second shift featured a student panel to discuss what it means to be an engineering student at the UM CoE.
