High Power Rocketry

A strong interest in High-Power Rocketry is one of UB-SEDS’s greatest assets and a favorite tradition. Recently, 10 of the UB-SEDS Rocketry participants traveled to URGG in Penn Yan, NY to launch their individual rockets and all 10 earned their EEE certification. This year the program has grown significantly and we expect to send 26 UB-SEDS members to URGG to launch their rockets and get their certifications.

Students can build their own rockets starting with a Level 1, and working up to a Level 2, once they've received their Level 1certifications. Each level certification allows students to purchase larger motors that they can then use to design larger rockets.
