Interested in working on Elon Musk's Hyperloop? 

Want to get noticed by recruiters and beef up your resumé?

Want to show off your designs to engineers at SpaceX/Tesla/NASA JPL/Lockheed Martin + many other great employers? 

Want to work with one of our 20+ sponsors that love to hire UMD Loop alumni?

Want to get your "hands dirty" and do real engineering ASAP, even if you're a freshman with no past experience?

Want to build something really, really, really fast (300 mph+ along a 1-mile track)?

Want to know more?

UMD Loop is having an interest meeting for fall recruiting! 

Where: A. James Clark Hall, Forum Rm. 1101

When: Friday, September 13th, 5 PM - 7 PM
