We're celebrating an incredibly happy Earth Day today as a team from NCSSM has just won The Earth Prize 2024! 🌎 Their winning project, FloodGate, is an accessible and cost-effective web-based application that utilizes geographic elevation data and AI to create an interactive 3D model to predict the susceptibility of communities and critical infrastructure to flooding.
The innovative project by students Shubhan Bhattacharya, George Cheng, Sumedh Kotrannavar, and Reichen Schaller bested hundreds of teams from around the globe to win a $50,000 prize, which will be split in half between the team and the school. Better still, FloodGate can mitigate loss of life and property by alerting at-risk communities in advance to the likelihood of flooding and by providing accurate information to emergency responders and relief organizations.

Elizabeth Moose is a familiar (and favorite) voice for thousands of our students and alumni. After 31 years at NCSSM, she continues to give to the Foundation because “it supports many things that state dollars are not able to do for us. So, whether it's guest speakers in the humanities, film screenings or the wonderful texts and materials that we use in our classrooms — you name it, the foundation makes those things possible." #NCSSM #STEMed #givingthanks
Thank you from NCSSM!
For the next few weeks, we’ll be shining a light on some of our donors and champions in our annual thank-a-thon. Stay tuned for highlights of partners and friends who elevate the NCSSM experience for our students!
