Overview: Survive the challenge. Solve the science. Reach the safe zone. The Last of Us is an immersive, team-based adventure that puts participants in a post-invasion survival scenario where science and engineering are the key to survival. Teams will navigate through a series of challenging checkpoints, each designed around practical concepts from Chemical Engineering, chemistry, physics and process engineering . Across multiple hands-on challenges, teams will test their critical thinking, teamwork, agility, creativity and practical problem-solving skills. From decoding hidden messages and optimizing chemical reactions to building filtration systems, managing simulated reactor emergencies and generating electrical energy, every challenge brings a new test of skill.
Event Challenges: Chemical indicators and pH-based code breaking Stoichiometric calculations and reaction optimization Pressure and propulsion systems Polymer synthesis and material properties Mass balance and thermal management Density, buoyancy and fluid systems Polymer-based filtration and separation Aerodynamics and controlled airflow Reaction rate and process control Packed-bed columns and emergency response Electrochemical energy generation Teams will progress through designated stations, earning points and collecting components along the way. Successfully completing the challenges will bring them one step closer to assembling their final souvenir and reaching the safe zone.
