Spring 2026 final exams will take place from May 11 through May 16.
Commencement at Cal State LA takes place each year at the end of the spring semester. These ceremonies honor students who completed their degrees in the previous fall, as well as candidates for graduation in winter, spring, and summer of the current academic year.
In this competition, students design and fabricate airplanes using 3D printing technology. The planes need to be lightweight, and the designs need to maximize performance given manufacturing and material constraints- a great opportunity to leverage modern digital manufacturing technologies. This competition comprises two parts: a flight competition and a design competition. Each is judged and awarded independently a first and second prize.
