Northeastern University Solar Boat is a student-run engineering club that designs, builds, and races a solar-powered boat.

​

This club gives students a chance to apply concepts and skills they have learned in the classroom and during co-op. 

​

Some of these skills include, solid modeling, engineering design and analysis, teamwork, and machining. Relevent courses include Fluid Dynamics, Finite Element Analysis, Mechanics of Materials, and more.

 

We​ volunteer with Boston Famly Boat Building to teach elementary school students about engineering, electricity, solar power, buoyancy, and boats.
