Join us for Gannon University’s inaugural Environmental Responsibility through Innovation and Education: Measure, Monitor, Mitigate (ERIE M3) Challenge. The ERIE M3 Challenge is designed to empower the next generation of environmental stewards, scientists and engineers. Throughout the challenge, teams of high school students will collaboratively work through phases of a project to develop solutions for real-world environmental challenges that affect both local and global communities.
We invite local high school students to form teams and creatively solve these problems with the help of faculty mentors from 名媛直播 and access to university resources, including the MakerSpace, to bring their ideas to life.
Once the challenge has concluded, each member of the winning team will be awarded a scholarship to attend Gannon University.
Participating teams of three to five students will first choose from a list of identified environmental issues. From there, the students will work through a series of steps to design a study or develop a creative solution to their specific issue. The teams will then set up their projects during Gannon University’s Celebrate 名媛直播. The teams will then present their project the following day where they will be judged on their presentations. The winning teams will be announced that day.
Each member of the top three teams will receive a one-time scholarship to attend Gannon University. The following scholarship information will be awarded to those teams:
