🚀 On the 22nd of September, 2024, the Rocket Powered Lander Project, became the first team in CPP College of Engineering history to implement an active controller during a static fire of a rocket engine. Over the twenty-five second test, the team was able to dynamically control the thrust and throttle between different target thrusts within a 5% margin. To add to this feat, they have also become the first student team of any school or university to design and test a liquid augmented solid rocket motor — an entirely new class of rocket engine. Learn by doing at Cal Poly Pomona is taken to new horizons each year, as CPP students push the boundaries of technologies in hands on projects like no other university. The Rocket Powered Lander project is a fantastic example of this mantra amongst the many other opportunities at this university to get industry respected experience that will land you your dream job 🙌🏻 Check out the Rocket Powered Lander projects social platforms:       LinkedIn: /company/cal-poly-pomona-rocket-powered-lander-project/       Website: / #engineering #gobroncos #rocketpoweredlander #lander #studentlife #learnbydoing #engineeringlife #studentsuccess #success #campuslife #aerospaceengineer #aerospaceengineering #CPP #EngineeringExcellence #TechEvolution #broncos #BroncoEngineers

That's a wrap on the 2026 Project Symposium & Showcase! The 26th annual Project Symposium & Showcase brought together hundreds of Bronco Engineers from across the College of Engineering to share the culmination of their hard work, creativity, and collaboration. Throughout the morning, students presented their projects and research across campus to faculty, peers, family members, and industry professionals highlighting the ideas, skills, and real-world problem solving they’ve developed throughout the year. The day continued with the Project Showcase, where the top project team from each department represented their program in a competitive final showcase. From poster sessions to standout presentations, our students showed what Become by Doing looks like in action. A huge thank you to our faculty, staff, families, and industry partners for supporting and celebrating our students in such meaningful ways. Stay tuned to find out who took the top spot 👀 #CPP #CPPEngineering #BecomeByDoing #CalPolyPomona #STEM #EngineeringInAction
