🥚 The Drop is an annual competition for students in grades K–5, hosted by the Samuel Ginn College of Engineering at Auburn University. Young engineers design and build a prototype to protect a raw egg from breaking as it’s dropped from increasing heights along the ramps of Jordan-Hare Stadium. The challenge encourages creativity, critical thinking, and hands-on problem solving while introducing basic engineering and physics concepts.
Participants receive:
• A competition packet with rules and guidelines
• Breakfast
• A T-shirt
• A medal
• Engineering-themed goodies
❓ How high can your egg survive the drop?
Aubie’s next mission takes him somewhere mysterious… and maybe a little fishy. 🐠
We can’t wait to see your creativity! So start planning those costumes! Dress up as your favorite sea creature, deep-sea explorer, mermaid, shark, jellyfish, or anything ocean-inspired. The more creative, the better! 🐙🐠✨
Get ready to dive in and make a splash! 🐚🌊
