A tradition since 1913, E-Week is dedicated to recognizing and rewarding engineers' accomplishments. Current students will celebrate the end of the academic year by participating in events such as as the Professional Society Mini-Golf, Mr. and Ms. Engineer, Quiz Bowl, Scavenger Hunt, and Root Beer Float Night. The week culminates with the annual E-Week Open House, where senior engineering students display their research projects, corporate representatives host booths to promote their companies, and high school students partake in information sessions and hands-on activities that highlight the benefits of becoming an engineer.
