Will's dad is a civil engineer. He uses math and science to make the
world a better place. Follow along as Will learns about how everything
that is built has an engineer and how he can be one, too!
Civil engineers have been around for a loooong time. But what do they
do? As Will learns, they do a LOT. They work in the community to find
problems that need to be solved and then create solutions. Ever wonder

system!

Engineer introduces kids to all the amazing things engineers have
created and shows them they can solve problems like an engineer, too.
