The engineers must create designs and construct builds to tackle challenging real-life problems. Christalis CEO Dr. Christine Gulbranson and the CEO of WET judge the final designs, along with famous guest judges that have NASA, the Olympics and NASCAR on their résumé.
The contestants live together, work together, and forge alliances all while trying to prove they have what it takes to rise above the rest as America's next great innovator. Some contestants earn distinction with inventive designs or practical shop knowledge while others fall by the wayside by displaying tempers or ineffective leadership.
