Principles of Engineering students quickly create, control, test and redesign machine prototypes @MahopacSchools. More torque needed: students bench-test a VEX V5 motor as a potential upgrade.

Barbara McClintock was an American scientist and cytogeneticist. Barbara grew up in Connecticut and New York. Unfortunately, her family didn’t have much money.

[MahopacSNHS @MahopacSNHS]

Through the 1940s and 1950s Barbara proved that genetic elements can change position in a chromosome, causing nearby genes to become initiative or active. Her research and findings paid off in the end because she was the first American woman to win an unshared Nobel Prize!

Edith Clarke was a pioneering electrical engineer at the beginning of the 20th century. Clarke worked as a “computer,” performing difficult math calculations before modern day calculators were invented.

[MahopacSNHS @MahopacSNHS]

Clarke is an inspiration to us all because she paved the way for women in many STEM and engineering fields. Her work has been celebrated, as shown by her induction to the National Inventors Hall of Fame in 2015.
