Multi-disciplinary concert brings music to unexpected corners of campus
A typical day in EPIC is quiet. Engineering and computer science students go between classes or do homework, and many are there for the entire day.
On Nov. 14, civil engineering students dressed in green polos and shirts lined up in the EPIC (Energy Production and Infrastructure Center) Atrium and began to sing, first in German and then in Japanese. The performance, “Music from the World: A Multi-Disciplinary Student Concert,” was a collaboration between UNC Charlotte’s Sophomore Design (CEGR 2154) for civil engineers, The Charlotteans Women’s Glee (MUPF 1123) and Prominent Chinese Americans (CHNS 1512) classes. Each class sang songs in different languages from around the world. The concert was a scheduled event in Charlotte’s International Education Week.
