…does engineering design make a difference?

The aim of this resource is to give students the opportunity to investigate the impact of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) on wheelchair sport.

The success of any athlete is the result of many hours of training, dedication and sacrifice. However, in the case of wheelchair athletes there is an added dimension - the work of the engineer who designed the wheelchair.

So when a wheelchair athlete wins a medal, to what extent has engineering design made a difference to the wheelchair athlete’s performance?
