Michigan Tech’s Concrete Canoe and Steel Bridge teams both took first place in the American Society of Civil Engineers’ 2016 North Central student competition at Michigan State University last weekend.
Although the concrete canoe races were cancelled due to bad weather, the team placed first in design paper, first in final product and fourth in presentation, giving them an overall score resulting in a first place finish.
They will compete in the national competition at the University of Texas-Tyler in June.
