Greetings from Oxford, Ohio!

It has been a busy start to the year, and the energy on campus is electric following the success of our undefeated RedHawks men's basketball team!

The College of Engineering and Computing is shifting into high gear for our spring semester, and we want to ensure you have everything you need to connect with our students. Inside this update, you’ll find registration links for our upcoming events, a first look at our newly-refreshed industry sponsorship program, and a call for project ideas for our upcoming capstone cycle. We hope to see you on campus soon!

Sincerely,

Jenni Birch Szolwinski, Director of Industry Relations

Shape the Next Generation – Planning for 2026-27 Capstones

It’s already time to look toward next semester! The most successful capstone projects are those that begin with early collaboration. If you have a real-world challenge that our senior students can help solve, let’s start the conversation now.

Need some inspiration?  Check out how our students have put their technical problem-solving skills on display at last year's CEC Design Expo.
