Capstone Conference Sponsorship

We are inviting you to partner with Dalhousie’s Faculty of Engineering in supporting the 7^th Annual Dalhousie Engineering Capstone Conference (DECC) on Tuesday, April 11th, 2023.  This year’s event will be held at Sexton Campus in the Emera Idea Building and the Richard Murray Design Building.  

DECC is the largest and most engaging event for the senior year classes, incorporating all engineering disciplines. The students’ final design poster competition will showcase how the projects integrate course work and engineering design skills, providing innovative solutions for many local industrial partners.  It is also an opportunity for companies like yours to demonstrate their commitment to engineering at Dalhousie, experiential education, and innovation and economic development in our region.

Each year DECC attracts over 1,000 community and corporate stakeholders, including students, faculty, media, industry, our Nova Scotia engineering community and the public.  More info can be found at dal.ca/decc  

We are inviting key companies and valued members of our community to sponsor this important event. All contributions will go towards DECC to ensure it is a quality event for our students and a great opportunity for students and industry to meet.
