Susan Hoban made the, National, in a story about a science fair in the UAE.
Dr Susan Hoban, associate professor of physics at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, introduced students to the wonder of Nasa’s Mars Rover, before allowing them to build their own, albeit smaller, versions.
“We want to use Mars as an inspiration to show the students that engineering is a career that they should choose, especially for girls, who maybe do not think that it is something they can do,” she said.
“My hats off to the organisers because it is a great undertaking. We hope that kids leave here thinking that engineering is fun.”
