Design, Build, Fly Competition (Annual Event)
This time intensive hands-on project will provide aerospace engineering students with the opportunity
to use their creative Imagination and engineering knowledge to design and build a radio controlled,
electric aircraft. The participants will compete in a national design competition.
Rube Goldberg Design Team (Annual Event)
Our AIAA branch is known nation wide for its Rube Goldberg design team. Every year, colleges
around the country compete in building an extremely complex and elaborate machine to do a simple
task. This is a hand-on project, which uses both engineering knowledge and imagination. This is one
of the most popular design contests held at the College of Engineering at UT-Austin as well as at other
engineering colleges throughout the country.
