Happy National Engineers Week 2022!
This week, we’re celebrating National Engineers Week (Feb. 20-26). Everyone’s invited to special events on campus sponsored by Tau Beta Pi, the Engineering Honor Society student chapter at Michigan Tech.
Founded by the National Society of Professional Engineers in 1951, Eweek is celebrated each February around the time of George Washington’s birthday (Feb. 22) because Washington is considered by many to be the first U.S. engineer.
Please feel free to stop by and check out Eweek events as your schedule allows:
- Tuesday, Feb. 22 — Try your hand at the Egg Drop Design Challenge in the Alley Makerspace in the MUB basement from 3:30-5:30 p.m.
- Wednesday, Feb. 23 — Be sure to grab a slice of Eweek cake courtesy of the Department of Engineering Fundamentals, in Dillman 112 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Later, build a spaghetti tower with the Built World Enterprise team in Fisher 129 from 5-6 p.m.
- Friday, Feb. 25 — Join Mind Trekkers for an Eweek Escape Room event extraordinaire in MUB Ballroom A2 from 4-7 p.m.
