Have you heard about the new course coming in Fall 2026—Surf and Snow Engineering?

This course dives into the science behind surfboards, skis, and snowboards, blending the thrill of board sports with real engineering principles. From the way materials are designed to handle extreme conditions to the physics that controls speed, flow, and motion, you’ll see how “shredding” is more than just a sport—it’s a science. Whether it’s carving through fresh powder or gliding across waves, there’s serious innovation happening beneath your feet. If you’ve ever wondered how gear is built, how performance is optimized, or how sustainability fits into the future of these sports, this is your chance to get a sneak peek before the class officially launches.

Join us to learn more about Surf and Snow Engineering, offered this fall on T/Th from 12:00 PM to 1:15 PM. If it sparks your interest, you might just find your next favorite class.
