The Festival of Design and Engineering 2019 - Friday 21 June, Saturday 22 June and Monday 24 June 10am - 4pm
The Festival of Design and Engineering is a showcase exhibition where our students’ creative skills, designs and prototypes are displayed to industry, commerce, friends, family and the public. Final year students will be on-hand to talk about the latest technologies they have employed to design solutions to real problems, encompassing market need, function, sustainability, style and aesthetics.
The Festival takes place at our Talbot Campus and features the designs, models and prototypes created by our students as their final year project. We are open to the public, industry & commerce, friends & family, schools & colleges.
