5:30 - 7:30   Visit the Engineering EXPO in the gym

6:00 - 7:00   Engineering Design Challenges in classrooms

Industrial Engineering                              Rooms Science Lab F-1, F-2, F-4	Sound Engineering            Rooms C-1, Media Lab C-2, C-3
People! Materials! Energy! Discover how industrial and manufacturing engineers create products in the most effective way by assembling your own LED light up mask!	Laser beams, explosions, robot voices...have you ever wondered how these sounds are made? Explore digital effects with a hollywood sound designer and create your own MP3!
Chemical Engineering      Real School Garden Pavilion	Mechanical Engineering                                Library
Chemical engineers have all of the right elements and good chemistry! Have you ever wondered how to make the perfect bubble? Join us for some bubbly fun as we create the best solution for colorful bubble magic!	Mechanical engineers use physical principles to create useful devices, objects, and machines. Are you competitive and like to challenge your friends and family? Get ready to design and build your own zipline racers and helicopters that use rubberband power to propel through the air!
Aerospace Engineering   Rooms E1, E4, and E6	Biomedical Engineering                  Cafeteria
Space is infinite and so are the possibilities! It’s not rocket science - oh wait, yes it is! Explore the work of an aerospace engineer by designing aircraft and air powered machines/systems while learning all about aerodynamic performance!	Biomedical engineers develop assistive technologies, such as wheelchairs, contact lenses, replacement limbs, diagnostic testing equipment, and all sorts of new medical technologies. Design and build a prototype of an iPad carrier that will attach to a crutch or wheelchair. Then test your design through an obstacle course.
Computer/Software Engineering Rooms E-9, E-10, E-11	Engineering EXPO Exhibitors                                             Gym
Computer/Software Engineers are programmed to succeed! Come learn simple programming with cubed robots and learn how to draw using a Sphero. Play games like PacMan and finger Dance-Dance-Revolution using simple circuits! Help save Princess Dot by navigating your robot through a cardboard maze.
