The San Diego State University College of Engineering is thrilled to announce that Senior Design Day will return on Wednesday, May 6, 2026 - one of the most anticipated highlights of the academic year at the College of Engineering.

Senior Design Day brings together students, industry partners, families, alumni, and community members for an inspiring showcase of innovative capstone projects developed by our senior engineering teams. This annual tradition celebrates months of hard work, creative problem solving, and collaborative engineering across all departments. Attendees will have the opportunity to engage directly with students about their designs, explore real-world solutions, and see firsthand the future of engineering in action.

To get a glimpse of what Design Day is all about, watch the video below featuring highlights from last year’s event.  

We can’t wait to see you there!
