Staff, faculty, alumni, and members of the public are invited to attend this annual event.
Tuesday, April 13, 2021 | 8-11 AM and 1-5 PM EDT
Registration is required – find event details and registration here.
Due to public health restrictions the 2021 Praxis II Showcase will take place online.
At the Praxis II Showcase, student teams present and demonstrate their designs to stakeholders and the general public. Attendees will be able to ask questions and talk to the teams in small group chats.
Read about a previous Praxis II Showcase in the U of T Engineering News.
Praxis II is a Year 1 course that allows Engineering Science students to refine and apply their engineering, design, and communication skills. The students are given a single challenge:
Effect a verified and validated improvement in the lived experience of a community.
Focusing on a community allows students to gain first-hand experience with the issues confronting real groups of people and to engage one-on-one with stakeholders and community representatives.
The course culminates in the public Praxis II Showcase. At the event, students share their refined understanding of their opportunity and their proposed engineering designs with a wide audience through posters, prototypes and presentations.
Learn more about the course and event here.
This event is open to the public but registration is required. Registration will open at the end of March. Please check back at that time.
