Collegiate Rocket Competition

Description

The Wisconsin Space Grant Consortium's (WSGC) Collegiate Rocket Competition is intended to supply teams of affiliated university students with the opportunity to demonstrate engineering and design skills through direct application. It allows the teams to conceive, design, fabricate and compete with high powered rockets. Student teams will be required to design, construct, and fly a high-power, one-stage rocket that, following apogee, will be recovered safely and in flyable condition, predict the rocket's flight performance, collect down-looking on-board video and deploy a separate lander recovered via parachute that will come to rest on a deployable structure then capture a 360-degree panoramic image of its landing site. The competition will include a series of written reports about the design, analysis, simulation, build, and test flight results of the rocket, an oral presentation, plus an assessment of competition flight data results. The faculty advisor must first register with WSGC before students/team members register. Please visit the scholarship's website for more information.
