Auburn Engineering’s annual student recruitment open house, E-Day, saw the largest turnout to date with more than 3,000 students, parents and teachers visiting from as far as Connecticut, Maryland, Missouri, Ohio and Texas. The event, held in February, offered middle and high school students the opportunity to tour engineering facilities, as well as the Auburn campus. Participants viewed research projects and departmental displays, and also chatted one-on-one with engineering students and faculty members.
