EBEC Challenge Local Round – February 2020
On this 22nd of February took place the local round of EBEC Louvain-la-Neuve in which the 12 BEST teams of the EBEC preliminaries once again tried the challenges proposed by us and our partners. This was made possible by our partners :
- SNCB/NMBS for the Team Design
- Westmalle for the logistical support
6 teams were participating to the Team Design proposed by SNCB/NMBS that was all about building railway on mountainous ground with a lots of diverse obstacle such as water or fire. They spent 6 hours trying to build this railway with limited and original materials in the Hall St-barbe and presented their impressive results to a jury composed of our partner and teachers from our university.
The 6 other teams were confronting each other on a Case Study specially created by BEST Louvain-la-Neuve. They had 6 hours to imagine an innovative, preventive and original solution to prevent and fight wildfire in a densely habited region such as Belgium. After those 6 hours of hard work in the study room of the Science building, they finally presented and defended they solution to a jury made of university teacher and professional engineer.
This day of competition ended with the traditional drink in partnership with Westmalle’s Abbey who shipped us a generous sample of their products.
And this is how ended the EBEC 2019_2020 Louvain-la-Neuve adventure ends ! Once again a big thanks to every partners who’ve trusted us this year : Odoo, Google, Netaxis, SNCB/NMBS and Westmalle. Also thank you to every member of CECI-BEST Louvain-la-Neuve who helped on the 3 rounds organised in Louvain-la-Neuve and to every participant who gave a lot of time and energy on this competition !
And a special thanks to Jerome Van Der Elst and Nicole Ritter for organising the 2 EBEC preliminaries!
See you next year,
Louis Sartenaer, EBEC Louvain-la-Neuve coordinator 2019-2020
