2023 Civil Engineering Challenge

Civil Engineering Challenge

In the year 2035 all new cars will be zero emissions in the EU, California, and maybe US. These will typically be electric or hydrogen cell vehicles. Your challenge is to determine how well these new cars, motorcycles, or scooters operate on TAMU campus. Students are tasked to digitize existing infrastructure and design innovative, newly built infrastructure to support new cars' transportation on campus, obtain efuel or water, drain/discharge water emissions, and be resilient for the future.
