Engineering students from the Sheffield Engineering Leadership Academy (SELA) talk about developing an interactive film / game where the player has to make potentially word-saving, engineering-based decisions.
The project
In this interactive exhibit, you play the role of an engineer dealing with the global challenges posed by famine, water shortage, disease and natural disasters. The experience is designed to demonstrate what we’re preparing our engineering students for.
Project 2050 is brought to you by the 2019 cohort of the Sheffield Engineering Leadership Academy (SELA), a group of outstanding students recruited to work with industry partners and academics on real-world problems.
The exhibition is situated in Futurecade and is available to view online.
