Moschetti and Hardy shared first place for their project research and prototype of a solar panel cleaning system for Super Containerized Living Units (CLU) in Djibouti, Africa. Five student teams spent their eight weeks of summer with EXWC and UCSB mentors working on five engineering Design Challenges. The teams of 3-4 students enrolled in UCSB and local community colleges were assigned a project and given freedom to develop unique solutions for real-world situations.
