Engineering Communications

Deliverable requirements coming soon

The goal of this competition is to describe an engineering topic (i.e. process, product, device, issue) in terms that the general public can understand.

Competitors have twenty (20) minutes to present the topic in detail, explained in terms that the public can understand. They must present the environmental, social, economic and political impacts, and whether these impacts are positive or negative. Competitors must give a critical discussion of the technology and associated issues.

The Engineering Communications competition is prepared entirely outside of the realm of the Internal Engineering Competition. Competitors choose their own topic, prepare and research and develop a presentation and abstract of the topic.

The Engineering Communications team will consist of a maximum of two competitors. At least half of the design team must be from the undergraduate engineering program.
