As our feeds are filled with videos and images of flooding in the Muskoka's, Sudbury and other cities across Ontario, we got to wondering: what role can engineers play in the future of flood prevention?
We caught up with Paulin Coulibaly in Civil Engineering, to shed light on why these floods are happening, what can be done to mitigate their threat, and to explain how his project, FloodNet, is helping.
“This idea that you’re designing based off of a human’s needs is an interesting way to apply the engineering process.”
Our ENGINEER 1P13 students spent their year designing accessible products that Mark McNeil could use in his day-to-day life. Diagnosed with juvenile idiopathic arthritis in childhood, he has spent a lifetime navigating environments that weren’t engineered with accessibility in mind.
