What are BUILD Nights from Home?

BUILD Nights from Home are designed to create a collaborative and inclusive engineering environment and cultivate building skills from the comfort of your home. Each BUILD will be designed to be made at home, while watching a live or recorded tutorial and hearing from a Penn State faculty member about their engineering experiences.
