Student works on a project for the Indiana State Museum

The Rose Show

Our students are doing some really cool things! From capstone design projects for real-world clients to competition team innovations and from freshman design studio creations to senior thesis projects. The Rose Show is your chance to meet our students and see their work, ask questions and make connections.

Have you seen some of the amazing work our students are doing? They're taking what they learn in the classroom and using it to tackle all sorts of challenges. That's what engineers, scientists and mathematicians do, after all. But our students start doing it early--as early as their very first quarter--because we know that's how they become great problem solvers. 

For many years, Rose-Hulman (and Rose Poly before it) hosted an annual event called The Rose Show, to showcase to the public the innovative and interesting things students were doing on campus. We brought it back--with a modern twist. Along with inviting the general public, The Rose Show will have special opportunities for companies, professionals and alumni to interact with our students, provide feedback and make connections.

Come check out the cool things our students are doing—from design projects for real-world clients to cutting-edge research.

Rose Show 2025

The 2025 Rose Show is set for 1-3 p.m. EST, May 7, 2025 in the Sports and Recreation Center.

The Rose Show is your chance to meet top STEM students and learn about their work. Make connections with students and faculty and consider what projects Rose-Hulman students could do for your company next year. 

If you are able to attend the day of the event, we are delighted that you will be able to join us. The event is located in the Sports and Recreation Center. Upon arrival, we will assign you three teams to simply provide feedback to without official judging. This will help ensure that each team will have someone visit their booth. If you submit your feedback, you will be entered to win a prize. 

For the remaining time, please walk around and view all the amazing thesis and projects that students have been working on this year! 

If you have any questions regarding attending the event, please email Ashley Bernal ( bernala@rose-hulman.edu ), and she will direct your question to the correct person.
