Carleton Engineering Students Win First Annual Hackathon on Hacking Climate Change

Undergraduate and graduate students from the Departments of Civil and Environmental Engineering and Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering (Adrian Soble, Seungyeon Hong, Max St-Jacques, Brodie Hobson, Saptak Dutta, Mohammad Derakhti, Connor Brackley, Joshua Reinhart and Jayson Bursill) have won the first annual Hacking Climate Change national competition.

The two-day competition required teams to propose technical solutions for building energy resilience for an existing building portfolio under climate change. The students are part of the Building Performance Research Centre; Adrian Soble is part of the CREATE Heritage Engineering program.
