Girl Scout Engineering Day at Cal Poly (DBJ)

Date: Sat Oct 11 2025, 9:00 AM PDT – 12:00 PM PDT

Alpha Omega Epsilon (AOE) invites Girl Scouts of California’s Central Coast for a exciting day of hands-on experience!

Anything that is created must first be designed and planned. An engineer designs and builds products, systems, or technologies. Engineers are curious about how and why things work.

In this engineering challenge, we will break you into small teams to explore how electrical engineering concepts apply to paper circuits. Throughout the day, you’ll have the chance to create your own paper circuit and test it, making improvements as you go. Each team will be paired with an engineering student mentor to guide you. At the end of the day, we’ll have several challenges to test different aspects of your paper circuit, and before you leave, you’ll earn a special patch to commemorate the event!

Please bring:

  • A refillable water bottle with your name on it
  • A lunch

Fee: $12.00, includes a patch

Parents are welcome to stay – but this is a drop off event!

Patches will be handed out at the event!
