\nENGINEER IT! is an educational and entertaining traveling exhibition developed by the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry (OMSI) that presents science as an open-ended discovery process. Visitors of all ages explore the fun and creative sides of engineering by designing boats, buildings, bridges, windmills, and airplanes, and then testing their performance in water tanks, shake tables, and wind tunnels. In addition, visitors experiment with gears and pulleys, operate a cargo crane, and learn about careers in engineering through video presentations. In ENGINEER IT!, visitors engage in open-ended, multiple-outcome activities designed to present elements of the experimental process.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
