Each year, Engineering Discovery Days brings over 9,000 K-12 students, parents and chaperones to the UW to learn about and spark an interest in the field of engineering. This year’s event will be held on Friday, April 24th and Saturday, April 25th. We are seeking a current UW Engineering student, or team of students, to design an app for this event that would include sortable exhibit list, map of campus, and perhaps a way to integrate the paper scavenger hunt we have used during previous Discovery Days. We understand that there might not be enough time to create a full app by this time, and would also be excited to talk about building a responsive website or laying the groundwork for an app for next year.
This volunteer opportunity is unpaid, but offers great publicity during the largest College of Engineering event of the year by including the name(s) of the app’s designer(s) in the app, program, correspondence to registered attendees, and the press release about Discovery Days. Please contact Katie Kirkland, Discovery Days event manager at katikirk@uw.edu by Monday, March 2 if you are interested in this opportunity.
Thanks!
