Fancy putting your engineering skills (and your creativity) to the test—with spaghetti?

Hey Science & Engineering students,

Fancy putting your engineering skills (and your creativity) to the test—with spaghetti?

The Union of Students is hosting a Spaghetti Bridge Building Challenge, and you’re invited to take part in an afternoon of problem-solving, teamwork, and a bit of friendly competition.

📅 Thursday 29th January
4:00 – 5:30pm
📍 MS017, Markeaton Street Campus

You’ll work in teams to design and build the strongest bridge you can using spaghetti and limited materials. The stakes?

🏆 A prize for the winning team
🥤 FREE drinks and snacks for everyone

Whether you’re a structural genius or just in it for the chaos and carbs, this is a great chance to meet other students, show off your skills, and have some fun outside the clasroom/lab.

👉 Get yourself a FREE ticket so we know numbers for teams, materials and food.
📣 And don’t come alone - tell your course mates and form a team. The more teams we have, the better the challenge!

Spaces are limited, so grab yours and get building.

See you there!
