A story in Milwaukee magazine in December featured the partnership between the college and ATC to put on the annual EnQuest Engineering Camp, which aims to spark an interest in STEM fields for high school students.

EnQuest has immersed youth in projects like designing solar-powered phone chargers or running biomedical simulations with advanced software. In the last 12 years, the program has introduced hundreds of students to real-world engineering projects.

Several engineers at ATC, including one alum, said their involvement gives them the opportunity to inspire the next generation of engineers. And it’s working: 75% of participants go on to pursue engineering or STEM careers.
