International Rocket Engineering Competition 2025
Jumbo Life Calendar | Midland, Texas
The International Rocket Engineering Competition (IREC) is the world's largest intercollegiate rocketry design-build-fly competition, with 150+ schools from 86+ countries competing in multiple categories. This year, the Tufts SEDS Rocketry Team will compete for the second time, in the 10,000-ft COTS category.
The Highly-Optimized Data-Gathering Explorer, or HODGE, is the Tufts Rocketry Team’s 2024-25 project, designed as the team’s second entry into IREC. It will carry a student-developed scientific payload to 10,000 feet in altitude on a commercial solid rocket motor. The HODGE project takes minimal inspiration from the previous year’s CARM rocket, but is otherwise a blank-slate design intended to further hone the team’s engineering skills and improve on past problem areas.
