After earning 1st place at the Pacific Southwest Symposium, Sustainable Solutions represented UCLA at the 2026 ASCE Civil Engineering Student Championships in Fairmont, West Virginia, where the team placed 10th overall in the nation!
The ASCE Sustainable Solutions Competition (SSC) challenges students to solve realistic problems in the civil engineering field by developing innovative and sustainable approaches. The competition encourages students to expand their knowledge of sustainable practices while fostering multidisciplinary collaboration and creative problem-solving.
The team’s 10th-place national finish among 24 competing schools is a remarkable achievement and reflects the dedication, technical expertise, teamwork, and innovative thinking of UCLA’s civil engineering students.
We are incredibly proud of the Sustainable Solutions team and congratulate them on this well-deserved recognition! Their success demonstrates UCLA’s commitment to preparing future civil engineers to address complex challenges through sustainable and collaborative solutions.
Congratulations to the entire team on an impressive season and an achievement worth celebrating!
