The Sharkus Electrus goes to Nationals!
After winning first place at the Western Regional Conference last spring, CSULB’s Chem-E Car, The Sharkus Electrus, secured a place at Nationals. In November 2025, the team competed at the AIChE National Chem E Car Competition in Boston, earning 2nd place internationally and 1st in the nation, stopping just 7 cm from the 19.54 m target. From long hours in the lab to the final run on competition day, the Sharkus Electrus team demonstrated precision, perseverance, and true teamwork every step of the way.
