UBMS is pleased to announce that the first program in the "Math and Science in My Daily Job"series is scheduled for:
Wednesday, October 23rd at Marian University Stayer Auditorium from 6-7 PM.
PRESENTED BY: Firefighter/Paramedic, Carl Bahr, from the Fond du Lac Fire Department
Carl has been on the Fond du Lac Fire Department for the past 9-1/2 years. He received his Associates Degree from Fox Valley Tech for firefighting and then devoted an additional year to become a certified paramedic on the national registry.
Students will have the opportunity to learn how math, chemistry, and physics are applied in: flame length and height, engine pump pressure, water volume in hose, flow rates, friction loss, rate of fire spread, spread distance, weather factors, burnt area and perimeter, among many other concepts. Additionally, Carl will demonstrate how math and science is used as a paramedic.
Carl's presentation will be about 45 minutes in length. Following the presentation, students and their families will have the opportunity to see and tour fire and rescue vehicles in the Stayer parking lot. Students are encouraged to ask questions of the Fire Department personnel present - and offer a word of thanks for their life saving work.
Do we have a firefighter or paramedic in the making among our students?? UBMS will help you get there!
