Future City is a four-month civil-engineering program for middle-school students, culminating in an annual design competition in January. This year, it will be January 20, and the theme is Sustainable and Safe Power. The program seeks professional engineers (and others with relevant technical backgrounds) to volunteer as judges to evaluate the student teams’ work. Volunteers can be working professionals, retirees, or college/graduate students with experience in STEM, urban planning, architecture, or related fields.
