The Engineering Navigator is a prototype AI-powered platform that connects students, families, and educators to engineering opportunities across the U.S. To show the power of this tool, we're focusing on North Carolina, where we're mapping local events and programs to show what's possible when communities are connected.

Fall Butterfly Count
Join us for our Fall Butterfly Count through the North American Butterfly Association! A butterfly count is a community science project with the purpose of identifying and counting butterflies in a specific geographical area, raising awareness, and identifying any changes to butterfly habitats. The survey is scheduled to take place from 10:00 am - 3:00 pm. Please bring a water bottle and snacks/lunch, as well as a field guide and binoculars if you have them. Long pants and sturdy shoes are highly recommended. Due to parking limitations along the routes, carpooling may be necessary. Please note that butterfly surveys are weather dependent. An alternate date will be set if weather conditions are unsuitable.
