Endeavour Exhibition Day

The main exhibition where members of the public will be present. During this time, your team will be engaging with attendees to tell them more about your project and answering questions (both physically at the exhibition and virtually on your team’s web page).

Consider splitting your group into shifts throughout the day so that you can take breaks.  At least one member of your team must be present at all times throughout the exhibition.

Check in with your supervisor to see what time academics might be coming to ensure that your whole group is present.

Requirements:

  • Closed toe shoes
  • Smart casual to business attire (no singlets, hoodies etc)

Endeavour Industry Viewing (5:30-6:30pm)

An exclusive invite-only event with university donors and industry members present to view your projects. This is where you will use your ‘elevator pitch’ skills to ‘sell’ your project and make connections with industry leads.

Requirements:

  • Business attire

Endeavour Awards Night & Celebrations - 7pm onwards

Following the Industry Viewing, students and guests will head to the Awards Night where winners of the Road to Endeavour Prizes, Departmental Awards and Industry awards are announced.

There will be light canapes, refreshments and live music so that you can celebrate the wrap-up of your project.

Project student bump out

All project groups will need to take all of their belonging (projects included) after the awards ceremony.
