What is an ASME EFx®?
ASME EFx® events bring excitement and enthusiasm to your local community with smaller scale, IN-PERSON thematic events hosted by you. EFx events provide a forum for students and early career engineers to share technical programming, career and professional development content, competitions, social and networking activities and much more.
What happens at an ASME EFx®?
Much like an E-Fest, an EFx is made up of similar components, but a shorter duration. These may include, but are not limited to the following elements:
- ASME Official or Impromptu Competitions: Competitions may include e-Human Powered Vehicle Challenge (e-HPVC), Student Design Competition (SDC), Oral Competition, Elevator Pitch Competition, and Innovative Additive Manufacturing 3D Competition (IAM3D). Impromptu competitions may also be at the discretion of the host institute and local organizers, and they should promote teamwork and enhancement of engineering skills.
- Career & Professional Development: Interactive workshops/sessions focused on technical skills, soft skills, and professional development topics to prepare students to enter the workforce post-graduation.
- Networking: Networking opportunities to meet speakers, fellow students, faculty, and prospective employers. Encourage students to interact, have fun and celebrate engineering!
