This exciting showcase features the capstone design projects developed by groups of final year undergraduate students in the Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, and Electrical & Biomedical Engineering programs. There are 47 projects this year, and 184 students eager to show you what they can do! Everyone is welcome, and admission is free. Drop in, and browse at your leisure. Located in the McMaster University Student Centre (MUSC), on the 3rd floor.
Sponsoring: All donations will be used to cover the cost of the event, including the cash prizes for the top 3 teams in each category, and costs associated with the projects. The sponsoring companies are welcome to provide us with a brief advertising video to play on the big screen in the background of the event, display their company banner, and provide promotional materials for students.

Judging: We need industry professionals to attend the event from 8:30 to 4:30pm, assessing approximately 12 projects out of the 47 in the exhibition (the ones related as closely as possible to your area of expertise). Judges will be on a team of 3-4 professionals. Each student group will deliver a presentation of approximately 10 minutes long, outlining the scope and design of their project, and then will demonstrate it. Judges will score the group, according to a set of guidelines, and have the opportunity to ask the group questions. Scores will be tallied, and cash prizes will be awarded to the top 3 teams in each category. Judges attending on behalf of a company will have their company logo included on our background slide show, are welcome to bring a company banner, and provide promotional material to hand out. Judges will be provided with lunch, beverages and snacks throughout the day, as well as a complimentary parking pass.
