Students in Themed Entertainment (SITE):

In late January, eleven of our members traveled to Columbus, Ohio to participate in the second-ever Students In Themed Entertainment (SITE) conference. They had the incredible opportunity to share their experiences in the industry and to build outstanding connections with industry professionals and other students interested in the themed entertainment industry. TEA@ND looks forward to supporting SITE@OSU in the years to come!

Ryerson Invitational Thrill Design Competition 2019

Having been invited to compete in Ryerson University’s design competition hosted at Universal in Orlando, Florida, TEA@ND gathered a team of 9 members and traveled south. We competed in 4 distinct challenges against 15 other universities and 120 students. In this, our first time attending RITDC, we placed 2nd in the Mechanical Design Challenge and team member, Mary Crawford, took 3rd in the Concept Art Challenge. After the weekend of competing, we traveled to the Orange County Convention Center for the IAAPA Expo (International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions). IAAPA was an incredible opportunity for our members to learn more about the themed entertainment industry and to increase their professional networks.
