“Engineering itself involves problem solving. You are given a problem and you use logic, mathematics, and other resources to solve this problem. The consulting category involves putting product planning, project management, research, and engineering business skills to the test.”
Given a problem statement the morning of, we came up with a feasible engineering solution and presented it to potential customers (judges).
