Clarios Engineering Challenge Day 2026
Description
This event is presented and sponsored by Clarios.
This engaging, hands-on STEAM event for middle school students will challenge them to think outside the box individually and in small groups to come up with creative solutions for a variety of engineering problems and activities.
Participants will be partnered with engineers from Clarios and engineering students from MSOE to complete the challenges and learn what it’s like to be an engineer.
Lunch is provided for all attendees.

FAQs
- May I drop my student off from the street / sidewalk near the Center?
Families should walk-in to check-in their students. Students cannot be dropped off more than 10 minutes before program start and must be picked up within 10 minutes of the program end time. Children not in a program must be accompanied by an adult at all times.
- How do I get to your facility?
We are located at 1444 N Water Street on the MSOE campus. A map and parking information will be sent to all families at least one week prior to your program start date to the email used for registration.
- My student is an advanced learner - can I enroll them if they are not a middle school student?
This event is only available to current 6th - 8th grade students.
- My student has accommodations I'd like to discuss - who do I contact?
Please note this program is run by Clarios volunteers and not STEM Center staff members.
Families know their students best and information you share helps our staff best support your students learning and participation in MSOE programs.
We ask families to share any information when registering that helps us support learning, behavior, communication or sensory needs. We aim to create a learning environment that is inclusive to all students and this information will help us better understand if we can ensure your student has a great learning experience.
A fundamental learning outcome of nearly all STEM programs includes working in teams to solve problems. With few exceptions, we are unable to accommodate students who wish or need to work independently.
