Engineering team from UALR to compete in Canada

LITTLE ROCK — A mechanical engineering design team from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock is set to compete in an international event after winning first-place among 18 teams in the Student Professional Development Conference in Lubbock, Texas.

The American Society of Mechanical Engineers organized the event that was held April 4-6 at Texas Tech University.

This year's event called for the team to design a small unmanned air vehicle to carry cargo through two gates, drop a payload and return to the starting point.
