Read what Lizbeth Mendoza from Allan Hancock College in Santa Maria had to say about our engineering competition!
"The competition was an invaluable experience for me, from check-in until the end I felt very welcomed and the excitement from the four ingenieros as well as all volunteers made it fun. I was given the opportunity to work with other students and mentors. In addition, I am very grateful for the hands-on experience I got with designing and creating a device during this and past competitions. I am a returning student to the community college and I do not qualify for a lot of internships and mentorship opportunities because of enrollment status and although this can feel discouraging at times I am thankful to Four Ingenieros Foundation. With a competition like this I am able to expose my creativity, hard work, and dedication. Lastly, I left the competition more determined than ever to continue pursuing a bachelor's and master's in engineering!"
