Future Engineers Day
Future Engineers Day is geared towards students in the greater Austin area in grades 7-11 who are interested in exploring the field of engineering. This event aims to help students begin thinking about their futures and show prospective Longhorns that they have a supportive community waiting for them within the Cockrell School of Engineering. Everyone is welcome to attend.
Activities include hands-on experiments designed specifically for students who may not have prior exposure to engineering. For students who are just beginning their engineering journey, this is a great opportunity to learn, discover and get inspired. If students have already taken multiple engineering classes or have extensive experience in the field, this event may feel introductory.
Registration for Future Engineers Day 2026 is now open.*
*Registration will remain open until all spaces and all waitlist positions are filled.
