The USNA Hydromechanics Lab, Aeronautics Lab, Department of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering and Department of Aerospace Engineering partnered with the USNA STEM Center to present the Keynote Program at 47th Annual DoDEA Europe Junior Science and Humanities Symposium (JSHS), held virtually on March 4 from Belgium. USNA faculty and staff Alex Laun and Lou Becnel provided video footage for remote tours of the Hydro and Aero Labs at USNA.
A Q&A panel consisting of USNA faculty Alex Laun, David Farrell, Jin Kang and Scott Davids, along with MIDN Teresa Collins, Keelie Stork, Gabby Shepherd, Annie Imhof, Elizabeth Grimmig and Raven Heath, fielded questions from high school students participating in the JSHS competition throughout DoDEA-Europe (West, South and East).
Event coordinator Galen Tate summed it up: “This was especially important in this school year, when students have experienced so many cancellations and disappointments. I don’t believe they will ever forget this experience, and USNA is an indelible part of that memory.” Winners of the regional JSHS competition will proceed onto the National Competition in April. The USNA STEM Center is supported by DoDEA Schools and the Office of Naval Research, also a sponsor of JSHS.
