Students to Display Array of Technical Projects

MELBOURNE, FLA. — Florida Tech College of Engineering and College of Science student teams will display their finished design projects on Friday, April 13,
from noon to 4 p.m. One hundred projects will make up the Student Design Showcase at the Charles and Ruth Clemente Center. The community is invited to see
what the students have accomplished.
Projects include an electric racing vehicle, a super-high-mileage vehicle, formula car, hydrogen fuel cell plane, computer visualizations, speech-driven
software, water purity devices, autonomous ocean glider, and many other research displays. Additionally, some of the best and brightest middle- and high-
school students from Brevard County have been invited to participate by displaying their science fair projects.
Florida Tech engineering seniors conceive, design and implement their projects, write a description, document requirements and gain hands-on experience.
Science students conceive and execute research in their perspective fields.
The student project simulates a real-world work environment challenge in a variety of engineering and science areas. The students apply theory, think
creatively and develop practical skills, such as teamwork, professionalism and leadership.
The Clemente Center is located on University Blvd. near the corner of Babcock St.
