Happy 4th of July! We are celebrating this momentous day through the hope, joy, and innovation that our students bring us, promising a brighter and more just future for our country and the world. Here's a peek into some of our favorite moments over the past few weeks with Trane Technologies. Our students engaged in hands-on learning activities, including PTC taste tests, fingerprinting, building models of cells and lungs, constructing stethoscopes, and exploring genetics with DNA models and tissue engineering concepts. They also had the opportunity to meet inspiring women in STEM and enjoy exclusive behind-the-scenes tours at Trane Technologies to learn about material testing, integrating biology, genetics, and engineering principles throughout their educational journey. #ProjectScientist #SummerCamp #STEAMEducation #GirlsinSTEM #Partners
