Mission Statement

Solar Splash is a Registered Student Organization (RSO) within the College of Engineering and Architecture (CEA), Specifically, mechanical engineering (ME). As an extra-curricular activity it does not provide credit for students who participate but enriches the educational experience by providing a way to allow students to practice engineering skills outside the classroom.

Objective

Solar Splash aims to compete annually in the annual ASME Solar Splash competition.

Wiki Objective

The purpose of this wiki is to have a common place for our club to store information related to work we have done in the club. Each category should include enough information that the next years group can look at the wiki and be able to continue without having to redo any of the previous year's work.

Design Process

To prepare students for ME 416 we follow the House of Quality approach to design (Building the House of Quality). Follow the links to learn more about the process. You may also want to see Specifications also from the ME 416 wiki.
