The Alumni Cup, presented by the Engineering Alumni Network, inspires students to think creatively as they work together to design Rube-Goldberg inspired machines that can accomplish a simple task. Each engineering department goes head-to-head as the teams and their machines are judged on effectiveness, presentation, and team spirit. This highly anticipated annual competition will take place at the end of National Engineers Week.
On Friday, February 27, come cheer on your department as they compete to take home the Alumni Cup and earn bragging rights for the year!
Students, faculty, staff, and alumni are invited to join in the audience as we watch engineering excellence in action.
