Engineering Exhibitions Planned at Fort Worth Museum of Science and
History
DALLAS & FORT WORTH, Texas–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#EngineersWeek—Mouser
Electronics, Inc., the New Product Introduction (NPI) leader that
empowers innovation, is proud to once again be a major sponsor of Engineers
Week (EWeek), five days of fun and engaging activities at the Fort
Worth (Texas) Museum of Science and History. For several years, Mouser
has been a major sponsor of this important event designed to increase
public awareness and appreciation of engineers and their work. Mouser
will sponsor several exciting exhibits Feb. 21–25 at the museum, located
in Fort Worth’s Cultural District. Entry to EWeek is included with paid
admission to the museum. Other activities celebrating National EWeek are
planned at schools across the Fort Worth/Dallas area.
To celebrate this year’s EWeek theme, Engineers Dream Big, Mouser will
host several engineering challenges and activities in the museum’s
Imaginer Studio, where guests can participate in interactive experiences
while learning how engineering affects everyday life. Experiences
include “Lights Out” — a beanbag toss game that features motion sensors
and LEDs — and an interactive LED puzzle game that features 900
addressable LEDs.
During EWeek, Mouser aspires to spark the imagination of future design
engineers, young and old, and to demonstrate some of the latest
technologies affecting the world of tomorrow. Mouser will also promote
its Empowering
Innovation Together partnership with celebrity engineer Grant
Imahara, of MythBusters fame. It’s all part of National EWeek,
observed each year throughout the United States.
“Mouser proudly encourages curiosity and education in young people,”
said Kevin Hess, Mouser Senior Vice President of Marketing. “Through
events like EWeek that promote and enhance STEM education programs, we
hope to help shape the innovators, inventors, and scientists who will
create the future technological wonders.”

potential of the profession,” said Van A. Romans, President of the Fort
Worth Museum of Science and History. “Through financial support and
donated components, Mouser and its employee volunteers show that they
truly support the engineering community.”
