Cool Ideas – Lightning Round

This is an open session for individuals to present their cool ideas. Each participant will have 3-5 minutes to present something they are working on in school that they are excited about and want to share. Sample topics include new and innovative experiments in engineering education, research breakthroughs, engineering outreach projects, and cool ideas that participants would like to pursue, but need collaborators to bring to fruition. Cool Ideas participants will be selected and notified of their presentation prior to the session.
