Join us in rewarding Engineering and Computer Science (ECS) students for tremendous work on their culminating capstone project!
The College of ECS is raising money to support student awards given out at the 2024 Student Project Innovation Expo.
ECS Student Capstone Design projects are a two-semester long endeavor where student teams collaboratively tackle a problem from an engineering/computer science perspective and create a prototype solution. Guided by faculty advisors, students develop their teamwork, communication, project management, and other skills alongside their technical acumen.
At the Student Project Innovation Expo, happening April 26, 2024, eleven teams will be awarded a total of $6,000 in cash prizes for their innovative projects. Your philanthropic support is a gesture that friends, parents, and alumni recognize the immense talent and effort on display in the College. Any money raised over this amount will be directly available to student teams for next year’s projects for material costs to complete their idea.
