The 2023 EECS Innovation Showcase will take place on Thursday 2 November.
The Innovation Showcase is an opportunity for selected students in the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science to showcase their end of year projects to industry sponsors, industry guests, VIPs, the wider UQ community and fellow students.
Not only does this event allow students to celebrate the successful completion of projects months in the making, it also gives students the opportunity to interact with industry and make valuable contacts.
Since 2012, the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science has hosted this showcase which has exhibited student projects from the School's key discipline areas of electrical and software engineering, computer science, and interaction design created through our studio and project-based capstone courses, along with outstanding thesis projects.
