DeKALB – NIU’s 2025 Senior Design Showcase will offer a look at various engineering projects by graduating seniors including robotic arms, virtual reality simulators, biomedical breakthroughs and more.
The event is free to the public and will take place from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Friday in the Convocation Center.
This year will include new projects from two mechanical engineering teams in support of the In-situ Collaborative Experiment for Collection of Hail in the Plains (ICECHIP), the world’s largest coordinated effort to study hail.
About 185 students from NIU’s College of Engineering and Engineering Technology will present over 50 projects sponsored by over 20 companies, mostly in teams of three to four members.
In past years, Senior Design Day has attracted over 1,200 visitors.
