UPEI engineering students display their real-life solutions

On Friday, April 15, UPEI engineering students will display their designs and network with community and engineering industry members at the 2011 Engineering Design Expo.

As part of their engineering design class in the three-year engineering diploma program at UPEI, students formed into groups and were partnered with various mentor organizations. Ranging from government departments to private companies to NGOs, these organizations had real-life engineering challenges for which the students designed creative and innovative solutions. These solutions will be on display from 11 am through to the evening when the Engineers PEI Design Team Awards and individual Department of Engineering awards, including the Noel MacAleer award, will also be presented.

All are welcome to attend the Expo, which takes place in McMillan Hall at the W. A. Murphy Student Centre.
