Note:
The Junior Engineering Technical Society
(JETS) is a national non-profit education
organization dedicated to promoting engineering and helping students discover
their potential for the profession. To generate future engineering talent, JETS
engages students in a variety of educational programs that increase awareness
of what engineers do and show how math and science are used to make tangible
differences in the world.
Foundations for student impact are built upon providing career resources and
experiences not often found in traditional learning environments; opening
students’ minds to their own career possibilities by removing social barriers
and negative attitudes about engineering; and addressing major industry needs
for a qualified, STEM-literate workforce.
