MESPOM students win Lund Green Prix
The Lund Green Prix is the final event in the ISS (Industrial Sustasinability Strategies) course. Students design a "car" constructed from simple materials such as card-board, wood sticks and plastic straws.
The students compete in groups in five categories with their "cars".
- Greatest marketing potential, where staff and students vote on their favorite
- Performance, where the "cars" travel down a slope created by the tables in the Aula
- Disassembly, where the students are to scrap the "cars" under time pressure
- Recycling, where not recyclable parts are taxed by weight according to a waste taxation stipulated by the Royal Lundonian Waste Tax Commision; and finally
- Material Cost, where the winning group has succeeded best in dealing with multiple and partly contradictive demands on the product - "the car".
Thus, the winning concept for a "car" has achieved in meeting a complex world placing a vast amount of contradicting demands on the product. The winning team this year consisted of five MESPOM students: Gerda Jonasz (Hungary), Alexander Romanov (Russia), Alesia Israilava (Belarus), Luciana Silvestri (Argentina) and Chi-Chung Tsao (Taiwan).
