Summer Squashed camp by the MME Department! High schoolers learned CAD and physics by designing and 3D printing their own tabletop trebuchets, finishing the week with distance competitions and an Angry Birds-style smash. We have a few spots left for Session 2 from June 29 to July 2.

So, if you have a high schooler in your life who would love to learn more about Mechanical Engineering, get in touch so we can get them signed up!

“When we got together to work through problems our first two years, I don’t think any of us realized that those would be the people we would depend on for help and support over the next four years.”
Congrats to Ann Varghese and all of our 2026 engineering graduates!

The racetrack Barber Motorsports Park became a classroom last month, when a UAB mechanical engineering class spent a day at the races during the Children's of Alabama Indy Grand Prix. Andrés Morales took his Vehicle Dynamics class to Barber, where students were able to talk with engineers from the Indycar teams, visit the museum, and enjoy a birds-eye view of the pit area.
