Presenting you our CubeSat team. We would love to welcome to our team!

Interested in Electrical & Computer Engineering? Come visit with us! No prior knowledge of programming and electronics is needed. This is our Aerospace Electronics Research Lab, where Cajun Advanced Pico Satellite Experiment, CAPE, research is conducted. Visit our lab by scheduling a tour through this link: bit.ly/TourENGR

Our CAPE CubeSat Program is open to all! If you are interested in Electrical & Computer Engineering, come visit with us!
We often recruit from beginner computer science and electrical/computer engineering courses. Through working with CAPE, you can learn about using micro-controllers, computer programming at an embedded level, implementing electronics in aerospace applications, creating professional hardware schematics, and constructing PCB layouts!
