Remote controlled boat race, organised by the department of Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering of Buet, has inspired students to combine their knowledge of electronics and ship design.
The recently arranged competition, Model Ship Propulsion Competition (MSPC), at the Dhaka University Swimming Pool has been featured for the second time.
This year the competition aligns around the theme, Race for Glory. The future engineers of Buet had to care about the model ships which have to navigate through - in addition to the time of travel !
The inter-university competition was preceded by workshops and selection processes spanning nearly a month.
VikingS++ from SUST became the champion, while Team Alpheus from BUET the 1st runners up – Drift from BUET, BRACU Aquaswift from Brac University 2nd runners up, said a statement.
