1 EOH 2007 marketability. Here at the University of Illinois our team is made up of students from all fields of engineering as well as architecture, art and design. Come see U of I’s engineering at its best! Location: Room 2005 This exhibit is suitable for: All The affects of composition on composite materials, such as concrete, carbon fiber, and others. Location: Hallway to room 119 This exhibit is suitable for: All Hydrogels Material Sciences Engineering Building 1304 W. Green, Urbana Map Code: M4 The Material Science and Engineering Building holds labs and offices for the Department of Material Science and Engineering. Material Sciences Engineering Building Electronic Materials Project Undergraduate Materials Organization The Biomaterials Applications of Hydrogels. You’d be surprised what this encompasses. Location: Main Hallway (east) This exhibit is suitable for: hs, adult Undergraduate Materials/AVS Project See a comparison of technology through the ages: Cathode ray displays, Liquid Crystal Displays (LCD), plasma screens, and organic light emitting devices. Location: Hallway to room 119 This exhibit is suitable for: All Keramos Mugs Keramos Display of ceramic mugs including the processing and material science of the ceramics. Location: Main Hallway (west) This exhibit is suitable for: All Fuel Cells Light Emitting Diodes Physics Professor Ralph E. Meagher and colleagues developed ILLIAC I, the first digital computer entirely built and owned by an educational institution. The ILLIAC series later continued with ILLIAC II, a transistorized computer, and culminated in the mid 1960s with the ILLIAC IV supercomputer--at the time the fastest and largest in the world. Meager also went on to become the first head of the Department of Computer Science at UIUC. 1952 Engineers Without Borders Can a car run off of sunlight and water? Come learn about hydrogen fuel cells, the energy storage medium of the future! Watch as we use a solar cell to convert water into hydrogen and oxygen gases, which are then used in a fuel cell to power a model car. Location: Main Hallway (west) This exhibit is suitable for: All Undergraduate Materials Organization LEDs you never thought existed! Demos with Christmas lights and other LED products. Location: Hallway to room 119 This exhibit is suitable for: All Materials Challenge High Performance materials Undergraduate Materials Organization Undergraduate Materials Organization Kids can learn about the magic of composites versus other material properties. This is interactive and great for kids. Location: Main Hallway (west)
