Expo Event Schedule 2023

Expo Day Check-In Begins Promply at 8:30 AM March 29, 2023

The Expo start time is 8:30 AM. Be sure to register to attend before March 15, 2023 to help us with planning this large event.

There are three types of displays/exhibits:

  • Tour stops: each department will have stops that are part of the guided tour led by our UL student volunteers. Rougeou holds two of our six departments and Madison holds the other four.
  • Industry: with the exception of large equipment and a few others, all industry will be in one centralized outdoor location and are included in the tours.
  • Research: every department will showcase some of their exciting research as well.

All traffic will flow in one direction in hallways and stairwells.

See You on Wednesday!
