Join us for a fun fall weekend!

We have a great deal in store for you over the three days of Family & Alumni Weekend and invite you to have a fun fall weekend at Wentworth!  Family & Alumni Weekend gives you the opportunity to connect with the entire Wentworth community, whether it's with students, faculty, or alumni, or by taking the chance to venture out in to Boston, everyone’s favorite college town.

 On Friday, we encourage you to come in early and relax in our Hospitality Suite before embarking on what’s sure to be an exciting weekend.  In the afternoon you can take a tour of the recently completed Flanagan Campus Center and the Center for Biomedical Engineering and Sciences.  At night, try your luck with our annual casino night – no cash required, but lots of prizes to be won!

 On Saturday, sample the classes that current students experience everyday as our esteemed faculty will present to you their favorite lectures.  Next head out to Sweeney field to watch past, present and even future Leopards take the soccer field in some exciting match ups, then stick around for the alumni tailgate.Next, come to the Dean’s Address as Dean of Students Annamaria Wenner will highlight major happenings across campus.  Looking for more fun after class?  Come to the Harvest Festival where you can build your own stuffed leopard, make your own street sign or get your picture taken with the Wentworth Leopard!  Then celebrate the Grand opening of the Flanagan Campus Center and the Center for Biomedical engineering with a ribbon cutting ceremony and reception.  

 What would a trip to Boston be without the chance to catch a show? Tickets are available for performances of the Blue Man Group, Improv Asylum and Shear Madness here.  For those of you who want to stay close to campus, be sure to attend our Family Friendly Hypnotist in the EWT Auditorium!

On Sunday, end your weekend with a wonderful family breakfast and the ride of your life on one of Boston’s own Duck Tours!

 Family & Alumni Weekend is one of the most exciting events to be held on the Wentworth campus.  We look forward to seeing you on this special weekend and trust that your time with us will be a memorable one!
