Dream Big
This film highlights the many ways in which engineers tackle problems big and small and explores how the principles of engineering can create a better future for all. Three female engineers are specifically profiled: one who specializes in creating structures that can better sustain earthquakes, one who designs and builds badly needed bridges in countries like Haiti and one who was inspired by her time in an after-school robotics club to pursue a career as an engineer. A DVD copy of the film was distributed to Saskatchewan schools in 2019.
