Design experiences

Design, build and engineer!

Welcome to Design Experiences, an innovative program aimed at empowering students to enhance their entrepreneurial and creative thinking skills. Participants engage in a variety of activities, including skill-building sessions, hands-on workshops, and exciting hackathons, all designed to cultivate essential technical and problem-solving abilities vital for future career success.

Through collaborative projects with peers and networking opportunities with industry professionals, students gain valuable insights and practical experience in addressing real-world challenges. This program not only fosters resilience and adaptability but also encourages participants to consider the broader social impact of their innovative solutions. Join us as we inspire students to become impactful change-makers!

We have a series of events (Devils Invent), labs (Honeywell Innovation Lab and E-Spaces) and student spaces (3D Print and Laser Cutter Lab) throughout the engineering buildings designed to support student projects and events.

Upcoming Events!

Design Workshops and Challenges

Whether you are just starting out or building on existing skills, our Design Workshops and Challenges offer valuable experience in tackling real-world engineering challenges.

Our goal is to foster an inclusive and dynamic learning environment where students can grow at their own pace and develop the skills essential for success in design and engineering!

These workshops and challenges cater to all skill levels, from beginners with no prior experience to more advanced students looking to deepen their knowledge. Participants will engage with various tools and technologies, including electronics, programming, CAD design, and prototyping to enhance creativity and problem-solving abilities

Devils Invent

Devils Invent is a series of engineering and design challenges. Participating students are encouraged to design, build, and implement innovative solutions to challenging problem statements submitted by community, industry and University partners.

Devils Invent events are perfect for students who are committed to making a difference and developing an entrepreneurial mindset. The challenges are open to all ASU students of all majors.
