Edible Car Contest

The GW SEAS Center for Women in Engineering invites all GW engineering students to compete in teams for the best, most functional vehicle created entirely from edible ingredients. The event is expected to be held in person at SEH - stay tuned for updates.

View the Video! This 3-minute video of the WiE Edible Car Contest, which was held February 24, 2020, shows the fun event during which seven teams of engineering students chose edible ingredients, then designed and assembled their edible vehicles.

A panel of judges assessed the vehicles according to set measurements, edible ingredients and the ability to roll down a short ramp without breaking. In 2020, seven teams competed: The SWEet Tooth; Lightning McQueen: KaCHEW; Actually Monday (Winning Team); Soy Bois; Compressed Air; Precision Pliers; and Tombolo.
