IREC/Spaceport America Cup

In 2017 the Rocketry Division competed in the Intercollegiate Rocketry and Engineering Competition (IREC). A part of the Spaceport America Cup at Spaceport America, IREC consists of several categories for colleges to compete in, involving 10,000 and 30,000 ft as well as solid, liquid, and hybrid rocket engine categories. Competing teams design and launch a rocket that: achieves a target altitude of 10,000 ft., and carries scientific payload with a 10 lb. minimum weight. Teams also write a technical report, extended abstract over an interesting aspect of the project, and present a poster on the showroom floor.
