The Future Engineering Workforce

Drones. Autonomous cars. Robots. Apps that monitor and improve our lives. Engineering and Computer Science are advancing at staggering speeds and changing the way we think, work, communicate and interact. The pace of innovation is so rapid that new technologies of today may be obsolete in just a few years. In fact, experts predict that 65 percent of the jobs that today's K-6 children will hold haven't even been invented yet.
