Up until 2015, Engineering EXPO was a three-day event held every two years, but is now a two-day annual event that welcomes a wide array of participants and visitors. Participants at EXPO include Fortune 500 industry leaders, engineering student organizations on campus, individuals displaying their engineering projects and ideas, and thousands of students and members of the community.
Over the two days of EXPO, elementary schools, middle schools, and high schools are invited to explore what engineering involves. Each day the event is open to the public and we encourage public engagement throughout the event.
In 2020, Engineering EXPO was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
EXPO 2021 was adapted to an online format to still allow thousands of students to learn about engineering.
Our team returned to an in-person format and won the Outstanding Community Outreach and Service Leadership award provided by the Wisconsin Engineering Student Council (WESC) for EXPO 2022! In 2024, EXPO again received the Outstanding Community Outreach award presented by WESC.
