JETS TEAMS Competition

Sponsored by the Junior Engineering Technical Society and the U.S. Department of Energy, JETS conducts the "Tests of Engineering Aptitude, Mathematics, and Science" (TEAMS) program nationally with more than 20,000 high school students participating, including 700 in Chicagoland. Two national champions were from the Chicago area in 1999. Contact Vic Logan, 630/469-5411 or vijalo@juno.com if you would like more information. Or visit www.jets.org.

JETS also coordinates NEDC, the National Engineering Design Challenge program. NEDC is a cooperative program with the National Society of Professional Engineers and the National Talent Network challenging students, often working with engineering advisers, to design, fabricate, and demonstrate working solutions to social needs. The JET TEAMS contest is March 2 at IIT Rice Campus and March 9 at the Chicago campus. For more information, visit the JETS web site (www.jets.org).
