Save the Date: Michigan Tech’s 24th Design Expo is happening April 16 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on the first floor of the Van Pelt and Opie Library and in the MUB Ballroom.

Design Expo is an annual event that highlights hands-on, discovery-based learning with a showcase of Enterprise, Senior Design/Capstone and other team projects from all across the Michigan Tech campus.

Design Expo Showcase
More than a thousand students will showcase their work and compete for awards. A panel of judges will view and critique project videos created by each team, then come to the Design Expo Showcase to meet the teams and ask questions live and in person. This year, 25 first-year engineering teams will also participate, showcasing their work in the MUB Ballroom.

Design Expo Social Hour and Awards Ceremony
After judging concludes at 2 p.m. April 16, everyone’s invited to a social hour at the Rozsa Center for the Performing Arts starting at 2:30 p.m., with light refreshments, entertainment and door prizes. Then, at 3:30 p.m., we will begin the Design Expo Awards Ceremony, where student teams will be recognized — and more than $3,000 in cash will be awarded.
