WPI Dean of Engineering SEED grant 2018

Soroush Farzin has received the Dean of Engineering seed grant for investigating the possibility of achieving TRUE net zero emissions by developing and examining the idea of Net Zero Neighborhood (NZN). The NZN approach rehabilitates an existing urban district and integrates different Food, Energy, Water (FEW) systems into a holistic model to achieve the Net Zero goal and successfully perform the nexus of FEW for a neighborhood. The office of the Dean of Engineering seed grants to Engineering Faculty intends to advance interdisciplinary research themes in collaboration with WPI faculty from all disciplines.
