Auburn Engineering’s annual E-Day drew more than 5,000 students, parents and friends to campus, making it the largest attendance to date for the event. E-Day serves as an open house to give seventh- through 12th-graders an opportunity to meet with current engineering students, go on interactive department tours and discover life outside the academic classroom through the college’s many student organizations. In recent years, E-Day has grown its reach with students coming from not only within Alabama, but Georgia, Tennessee and Mississippi as well. Outside of Camp War Eagle, E-Day is the single largest student event held on the Auburn University campus each year. Next year’s E-Day will be Feb. 23, 2018.
