What is Made@Mines?

Hosted by the Mines Maker Society (MMS) during E-Days, Made@Mines is the premier project showcase for Colorado School of Mines students. It's a celebration of the "maker" mindset, where students present their personal engineering, software, and creative projects.

The public is invited to observe all presented projects and vote on their favorites using special Made@Mines tokens. Our panel of distinguished faculty judges will evaluate projects based on a rubric to award top prizes across multiple categories!

How it Works

  • 🚀 Submit a Project: Personal projects are highly encouraged. Highly-polished class projects are also welcome!
  • 🎟️ Attend & Vote: Attendees get tokens at the entrance to vote for the "Popular Vote" winner.
  • 🏆 Win Prizes: Faculty judges review projects, and grand prizes/raffles are drawn at the end of the event.
