Engineering Discovery Days

Engineering Discovery Days 2013 brought over 9,000 guests to campus to participate in engineering innovation through 115-plus exhibits and information sessions. A hearty "thank you" to all who attended and participated. We'll be posting photos from both days soon.

The College of Engineering will have a booth at Seattle Science Expo Day on June 8, as will many UW engineering groups (Fold-It, Society of Women Engineers, the Center for Nanotechnology, Applied Physics Lab, and many more).

At Engineering Discovery Days, students and faculty from all UW engineering departments share their work with students, teachers, families and the community.  Engineering Discovery Days is free and open to everyone.

Student Exhibits and Competition

Alumni judges awarded ribbons to exhibitors for the categories: Engineering Excellence, Community Involvement, and Just for the Fun of It. The People's Choice category was decided by a popular vote of attendees.

And the People's Choice award went to The Human powered submarine!

Planning for Next Year

Get an idea of the depth and breadth of exhibits and logistics from 2013: exhibits, information sessions, and parking and logistics.
