PE Review Course - Fall 2008

The Austin YMF is now accepting students for the Fall 2008 PE Review Course.  The course consists of four instructional Saturdays covering eight- 3 hour breadth exam subject sessions, and an optional student-run review day.  Please register by September 5, 2008. Click here for more information.

2008 West Point Bridge Design Competition

The Local West Point Bridge Design Contest will be held from February to May this year.  This contest is a nation-wide Internet-based competition intended to promote math, science, and technology education to U.S. students, ages 13 thru 18.  This is a great opportunity for ASCE to offer real world experience to Austin’s young people and generate excitement for the engineering field at a young age.  For more information, please visit the website at
