CEM Senior Design Expo
The Expo showcases student projects in engineering, computer science and geology.
We lead with a vision to inspire future trailblazers in engineering, computer science and geology. From industry-partnered solutions to societal improvements, our students’ works range from the innovative to the extraordinary.
Each year, we feature around 100 projects from across CEM. We especially encourage K-12 school groups from around the region to attend and vote for the best prototype and process. The efforts of faculty, staff and students continue to make this event a premier showcase of technology and development.
