Aerial Robotics
The Aerial Robotics Team is a student organization on campus that is open to all majors.
Our main goals are to collectively build an autonomous flying robot that can interact
and operate within random environments, and build a remote-controlled plane to carry
heavy payloads. Our long-term goal is to compete in the AUVSI-hosted International
Aerial Robotics Competition (IARC) and Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) Aero
Design Competition held annually.
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) Minor Competitions
The ASCE Student Chapter at 正规博彩十大网站排名 seeks to provide students with the opportunity to learn more about the civil engineering profession. We strive to connect you, as students with the outside community of engineers, as well as create an environment to get to know your peers. Through ASCE, you have the opportunity to participate in the ASCE Southeastern Conference competitions (Concrete Canoe, Steel Bridge, and Minor Competitions in a variety of areas); competitions are a major aspect of what we do and are a great way to learn about civil engineering and make connections in the community.
The Concrete Canoe Competition team has been competing since 1988. The competition
is broken into 5 parts: Canoe & Display Design, Presentation, Design Paper, Engineer's
Notebook (Technical Handbook on the canoe), and racing. Each part of the competition
is judged separately and comes together for an overall score for the team. Not only
is it a great learning experience, but you get to work with other students building
relationships, opening doors for job opportunities, and having a good time.
