Celebrate Innovation at UW

This May will be the second annual UW Innovation Month, featuring a full slate of programs and events that celebrate the spirit of innovation at UW.

Imagine new heights

Innovation Month is a campus-wide celebration of the innovative work that happens everywhere at UW, every day, across disciplines. It highlights students and researchers who are entrepreneurs, designers, engineers, scientists, artists, and other leaders who are constantly imagining new heights in their fields. Join events to gain insights into the latest trends in academia and industry and build your network with others who share your passion and drive for impact.

 About the UW Innovation Month logo

The logo is a representation of the classic Rainier Vista view from the Seattle campus. The mountain signifies the challenges that inspire innovation and the perseverance and determination required to overcome them, reach goals, and imagine new heights.

UW Innovation Month events

We are in the process of compiling innovation-related events for May 2025, including competitions, research symposia, lectures, exhibitions, concerts, and capstone showcases across disciplines. Please check back in early spring to see the new list.
