E-Week Kick-Off Celebration

Celebrate the beginning of E-Week with a kick-off event with food, giveaways, and information about the events during Engineer’s Week.

Wyman Quad (rain date location will be the Imagine Center) | 12:00 p.m. – 2:00 p.m.

Aerospace and Aviation

Network with JHU alumni and learn about the engineering behind the Dragonfly New Frontiers mission to Titan.

Flying Drones… on the moon… of Saturn.

So how would you operate a drone? On another celestial body? In a denser atmosphere and no external power source? Plus, you think your internet lag is bad?

Join us as we kick-off Engineering Week and hear a lecture from Kenneth Hibbard, WSE ’09, Project Systems Engineer for the Dragonfly New Frontiers mission to Titan at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory.

Ken will discuss some of the technical challenges of flying at drone on Saturn’s moon, Titan, and sampling multiple geological locations. This revolutionary mission concept includes the capability to explore diverse locations to characterize the habitability of Titan’s environment, to investigate how far prebiotic chemistry has progressed, and even to search for chemical signatures that could indicate water-based and/or hydrocarbon-based life.

Hackerman Hall B-17 | 6:00 p.m.

Bridges Beyond Blueprints: Navigating Diverse Career Paths in Engineering

Join the Life Design Lab for a panel discussion with JHU alums about different paths to follow after graduating with your degree in engineering, including industry, research, graduate school, and more!

Hear from panelists who are focusing on either industry work, research, grad school and less traditional career paths for engineering majors as they share about their life journeys and provide valuable insight to current students. 

Imagine Center | 3:30 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.

WSE’s 14th Annual Speed Networking Night

The Whiting School of Engineering invites you to attend the 14th annual Speed Networking Night. During this event, students will meet with different alumni as they rotate through a series of seven-minute, in-person, one-on-one, speed-networking sessions. These sessions offer students the opportunity to practice their “elevator pitch” and receive feedback on how to improve and make the best possible first impression.

Shriver Hall Clipper Room/Lobby | 6:30 p.m.

Show Your Work Lunch & Learn

Join the Life Design Lab for a lunch & learn workshop about how to showcase academic, research, and design projects in a professional context including on resumes, in job interviews, and within professional portfolios.

Learn how to go beyond talking about the “what” behind a project and dive more into the “why” and “how”.

Imagine Center | 11:30 a.m. – 1:30 p.m.

Society of Women Engineer (SWE) Tower of Power

Watch teams of Hopkins engineering students and Baltimore city school students compete to build the tallest towers out of dry pasta noodles and marshmallows. Teams must register in advance.

Visit the Society of Women Engineer’s website to learn more about this campus group.

Glass Pavilion | 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.

Bloomberg BPuzzled

Bpuzzled is a 3-hour long competition where teams use problem solving, creative thinking, and teamwork to solve challenging and intricate puzzles that are logical in nature, similar to those found in escape rooms. Each puzzle is themed to a location of a Bloomberg office from around the world, and the winners get a chance to compete in the Global Finals and be flown out to NYC to do so.

FastForward U Building | 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.

Glass Pavilion | 12:30 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.

Check out which Employers will showcase at this event here (or register via this link if you are an employer)!

Tau Beta Pi Trivia Night

TBP is hosting an Engineering-based trivia night for all WSE students!

About Tau Beta Pi: Tau Beta Pi is the only engineering honor society representing the entire engineering profession. It is the nation’s second-oldest honor society, founded at Lehigh University in 1885 to mark in a fitting manner those who have conferred honor upon their Alma Mater by distinguished scholarship and exemplary character as students in engineering, or by their attainments as alumni in the field of engineering, and to foster a spirit of liberal culture in engineering colleges.

There are now active collegiate chapters at 255 US colleges and universities, 48 active alumni chapters in 16 districts across the country, and a total initiated membership of 636,690.

Maryland Hall 110 | 4:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m.
