Both new and returning students are busy at Iron Range Engineering. The past week, students have been working hard on both their own personal learning and design projects. Our team has currently been working on a project for United Taconite, one of the area mines located between Virginia and Eveleth. Last Thursday, the group, including our mentor Mike Shoberg, visited the mine's pellet plant near Forbes. At the plant, we met with our contacts for the project. Questions were answered, project requirements were determined, and a tour of the existing system took place. They were very welcoming and excited to have us on board for the project. Since then, we have been making schedules and establishing our goals for the design by the end of the semester. Along with the projects, students have been working on developing their own personal learning competencies that they plan to focus on. Each student is different as we all have different areas we want to specialize in. It's hard to believe we are already into the third week of school.
