Today the Design Detectives spent the morning at GE Aviation in Batesville, MS. This was a first for GE Aviation and Girl Scouts Heart of the South. We toured the plant where they make parts for the engines of Boeing airplanes. After the tour we met up with 5 of the plants women engineers from various fields, one was a Chemical Engineer, one an Environmental Engineer, two were Industrial Engineers and the last was a Mechanical Engineer. The Design Detectives were able to learn about what type of schooling is required to be an engineer, how much they earn in their careers and what our new friends do at the GE plant. We spent the rest of the day working on our engineering challenges for the day.
