USF Engineering EXPO

Engineering EXPO is a free event and a unique opportunity to meet and talk with Tampa Bay's local engineers and engineering student organizations at USF. EXPO features hands on exhibits and shows that help encourage more students to pursue fields in science and mathematics.
This is a free event where all ages are welcome to the University of South Florida in Tampa to enjoy interactive, educational shows and hands-on exhibits. There is also an opportunity to fulfill Sunshine State Standards and even finish a Scout Badge Achievement. (learn more)
