Conference Program Day 2: Saturday May 14, 2022
The theme of this year’s conference, “Innovations and Solutions for Today’s Challenges” expresses one of the two visions of this conference. While engineering, technology, and computing are different disciplines, they work together to create practical solutions. This conference embodies the synergy.
The second vision is to tap into the vibrancy of students, especially undergraduate students. This conference especially supports undergraduate students and gives them opportunities to share their innovative ideas. To this end, we also have over forty posters, mainly of undergraduate research and capstone projects.
