Every Spring MESA (Mathematics * Engineering * Science * Achievement) hosts a series of K-12 student competitions in Math, Science and Engineering. The Interactive MESA project is an experiment designed to engage more of the UC Berkeley MESA community in this important K-12 outreach activity. This World Wide Web site for the MESA competitions contains the MESA competition rules, a virtual classroom with related mathematical, scientific and engineering principles behind the competitions, a virtual design studio, and examples of past designs. We also provide on-line learning resources in career guidance, math, science and engineering.
is the threaded discussion tool
designed to allow Berkeley faculty, students and alumni
to mentor and
advise MESA students from their offices, labs or homes.
On April 4, we launched the Interactive MESA Egg Drop Competition web page, along with the Egg Drop Design Studio. The MESA Day competitions were highlighted in the April 13, 1998 issue of the Engineering News with title: MESA DAY 98: MESA Cracks the Mystery of Engineering for Young Students.
