US Sailing Reach (STEM) Initiative: Careers in Engineering

The US Sailing Reach Initiative, a national STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) educational program to inspire sailing programs and schools to utilize sailing as a teaching platform, breaks down barriers for youth to consider careers in STEM related fields while getting out on the water. Learn from professional athletes and college sailors about utilizing engineering to maximize their understanding of the sport. Sailing is not just a sport, but a gateway to a variety of exciting fields of study. Module three of the Reach curriculum is featured in this video. Learn more about sail area and sail controls through unique computer modeling. Reach website - https://www.ussailing.org/education/youth/reach/
