So you want to make shoes for Nike, study forensic science, or build an artificial artery?

Thursday, March 18, 2021 at 3:00 PM until 4:00 PMEastern Daylight Time

Ever wanted to knit an artificial artery? From designing elephant collars that protect remote villages and innovating bite sleeves that shield military officers from harm to developing fabrics that harvest energy and garments that monitor your vital signs, our students lead lives of impact. Textiles today are innovative, life saving, creative, global, all around you and thriving right here in North Carolina. Our textile students build their education on a foundation of science that takes them to fashion houses, NASA, textile design companies, laboratories, graduate school and beyond. Along with our faculty and staff, they embody the Think and Do philosophy that is NC State. The March 18 event will focus on Textile Engineering, Chemistry, and Science. The April 8 event will focus on Textile Apparel, Technology, and Management.

Registration is no longer available because the registration deadline has passed.
