Picnic Day

The CHMS Department welcomes graduates to the annual Alumni BBQ! This is an opportunity for Alumni to reconnect, network, and socialize with peers.

Come visit the Electrical and Computer Engineering Graduate Student Association (ECE-GSA) in the quad and participate in kid-friendly art activities that demonstrate how semiconductor device fabrication works. Water and fun t-shirts for sale/donation.

Learn about the impact of earthquakes on structures. Make a team and use K’NEX to build a building, the taller the better! Your buildings will be tested with real earthquakes using a shaking table. Let’s see if your building resist.

Experience the future of agriculture. See robots and other bio-automations in action; watch a mechanical stomach; and learn how to turn waste into energy.

Relax, recharge and reconnect with fellow engineering alumni.

Join us for shade and snacks, participate in a gyroscope spinning competition, and snag some College of Engineering swag. Family members and friends of the college are welcome!

Navigate your way through a maze made entirely of laser beams. This is always one of Picnic Day’s most popular attractions, so get there early to avoid long lines!

What is neuroengineering and how might you benefit from it? Come see examples of neuroengineering projects and ask us questions about the field.

What boils at -320°F and is cold enough to burn? Liquid nitrogen, of course! If you would like to see this incredible chemical phenomenon and better yet, eat it, come on down to try our Liquid Nitrogen Sorbet!

Come and interact with the amazing senior design and student projects and get excited for electrical and computer engineering.

Future Engineers, Designers, and Creatives Unite! Have you ever seen a 3-D printer in action? We are sure these are the "droids" you are looking for. Who needs a Light Saber when you can cut with a Laser! Come check out our NEW Engineering Student Design Center.

It's slime time! Enjoy a day of making slime and being an engineer for a day! All materials are safe and non-hazardous. The best part -- you get to take your slime home!

Meet Civil and Environmental Engineering students and their 20 foot bridge which they design and fabricate each year and compete against other Colleges and Universities!

Come join MASC as they explore the world of Martio’s (Marten Site)’s mushroom kingdom and showcase the material properties through fascinating and exciting demonstrations. Can their knowledge save their friend from Bane’s (Bane Ite) domain of evil?

Engage with our engineers, rev up with hands-on activities, and cruise through the future of mobility. Get charged up for fun, innovation, and a spin in the electrifying world of electric vehicles!

Come and interact with sophomore students in electrical and computer engineering demonstrating amazing robots racing to reach sound targets.
