Your sponsorship will enable us to offer free attendance for those students and you will be recognized as the benefactor of those attending on scholarship.

All sponsors are responsible for providing a quick engineering game or activity that will last 5-7 minutes while the students are at the booth. Sponsors are also encouraged to have advertising/marketing "swag" materials as well. The activity should be engineering-related and be able to be performed individually or in pairs.
