Event Description
Physics & Engineering Open House: Honoring a Legacy, Celebrating the Future
Join us for a special evening as we celebrate the remarkable career of Dr. Beecken and his many years of dedicated leadership in Bethel University's Physics and Engineering Department. As Dr. Beecken prepares for retirement, we invite students and families, alumni, colleagues, and friends to honor his lasting impact on generations of students and the growth of the program.
This open house also offers a unique opportunity to explore Bethel's newly renovated Physics and Engineering laboratories and learn about the exciting advancements and continued growth of engineering at Bethel.
Come reconnect with fellow alumni, meet current faculty, tour the lab spaces, and celebrate both a distinguished legacy and a promising future.
