Annual Merrill L. Ebner Fund Manufacturing Engineering Undergraduate Design Portfolio Competition

The annual Merrill L. Ebner Fund Manufacturing Engineering Undergraduate Design Portfolio Competition is a competition open to all undergraduates across the College of Engineering below the senior level. The intention is to encourage all engineering students to begin to develop their design portfolios early in their college career. The Competition is usually announced in January, followed by a Portfolio Workshop in February, a submission deadline in late March, and prizes awarded in late April.

Recent alumni participate in the Portfolio Workshop each year to help students understand what a design portfolio is all about. The portfolio is a great tool to use during job interviews to show prospective employers the scope of your work. We hope to see you at the next Workshop!
