NYU Concrete Canoe
A Tandon Vertically Integrated Project Team
Who We Are
The NYU Concrete Canoe team is a student-led organization that designs, builds, and races concrete canoes. We compete annually in the ASCE Concrete Canoe Competition, showcasing our engineering skills, material science expertise, and teamwork.
Our team brings together students from diverse engineering disciplines, united by a passion for hands-on learning and collaborative innovation.
What We Do
Design
Innovative hull designs combining aesthetics with hydrodynamic efficiency using advanced CAD tools.
Build
Hands-on construction using unique concrete composites and sustainable materials developed in our lab.
Paddle
Mastering our creations on the water through rigorous training and synchronized teamwork.
Compete
Representing NYU at regional and national ASCE competitions against the world's best engineering schools.
Chrysalis
Our 2025 canoe represents renewal and transformation. Like a butterfly emerging from its chrysalis, Chrysalis pushes the boundaries of sustainable materials and improved hydrodynamics, embodying the team's evolution.
