Aperture Laboratories at Jacobs

Tuesday, Feb 21 2012, 6:00pm to 9:00pm
CSE 1202

They say great science is built on the shoulders of giants. Not here, at Aperture we do all our science from scratch - no hand holding.

Who wants to make 60 dollars? Or the equivalent for that matter.

Lab boys tell us we are suffering from a shortage of test subject,s so until we phase out human testing with robots we want the best, and you're it.

With your help we're going to change the world.

Enspire 2012

Wednesday, Feb 22 2012, 9:00am to 4:00pm
PC Ballroom West

Enspire, part of TESC's annual celebration of National Engineers Week, is an event that seeks to inspire the next generation of engineers. Over 400 students come to the UC San Diego campus, tour the Jacobs School of Engineering, meet current engineering students, and engage in hands-on design activities. Founded in 2008, Enspire has established itself as one of the largest and most visible engineering events on campus.

At this year's Enspire, we are looking to make the event more hands-on than ever before. We are embarking on an ambitious project to have all the students build a small robot from scratch, which they can take home!

DECaF 2012

Friday, Feb 24 2012, 9:30am to 2:00pm
PC Ballroom West

The Disciplines of Engineering Career Fair (DECaF), established in 1998, is the only annual student-managed multidisciplinary career fair at UC San Diego. This event provides company representatives a unique opportunity to interact and engage with UCSD's talented engineering students regarding career options, internships, and permanent or summer employment opportunities.

Open exclusively to UCSD students and alumni, DECaF is coordinated by the Triton Engineering Student Council and over 25 pre-professional engineering student organizations at the Jacobs School of Engineering. These engineering societies, representing the spectrum of disciplines at the Jacobs School, work in close collaboration to maximize the attendance of UCSD's 5,000 undergraduate and graduate student engineers and to ensure the satisfaction of recruiters and students alike.

Visit the official DECaF homepage, and check out the timelapse video from last year!
