    Mentors for High School Engineering Programs (Austin, TX 78753)

    Hello,

    I am an Engineering Teacher at a N. Austin High School and we are rapidly expanding our Robotics/Engineering Fabrication Shop and are looking for Mentors to help our Students make the most of their Engineering Experiences. We have Great Electrical Engineers and Computer Engineers, but are in dire need of more mechanical know-how - particularly with CAD/CAM, CRIO, or CNC experience, but any creative people, or mechanically inclined people are welcome as well.

    We just added a Tormach PCNC 1100 w/ATC and some other goodies, and are running the Autodesk Suite with SprutCAM and NI Labview.

    Please contact me if interested!

    Thanks!
    Pat

    I am considering relocating to Austin. Is this a career opportunity?

    Not immediately - if you are considering a career in education, I can certainly help you with that transition, or if you would like to work for Samsung or National Instruments, we have mentors from those companies you can network with, but besides the occasional pizza party, access to the fab shop and gratitude of some poor underpaid teachers and their students there is no direct compensation involved.
