Due to unforseen circumstances, we have changed the Egg Catapult competition to the Fire Away marshmallow launch. We will send instruction and catapult to you. The objective of the Fire Away marshmallow launch is to launch a marshmallow to a target 20 feet away. We will be sending the instructions and materials directly to your school before the end of Winter Break. Deadline to sign up is January 13, 2002!

Thank you for your interest in participating in Engineering Expo 2003. We look forward to sharing this experience with you and your students.

We have developed this webpage to help you and your students become acquainted with the schedule and types of games and competitions available. The game sign up forms may be reproduced for your convenience.

This year, Engineering Expo 2003 is being conducted in a different manner than previous years. The first change is the student participation prior to the event. This competition is the poster contest in which the students will design a poster, which integrates the three disciplines of engineering, civil, electrical and mechanical. More information on this competition can be found in the poster section. On Expo day, we will have a short tour session allowing the students to visit laboratories in each of the three disciplines. After the tours, the main focus of Expo begins the game competitions. The games will be followed by an awards ceremony. There will also be College of Engineering student project displays as well as local industry displays.
