Five University of Dayton students from the schools of engineering, business administration, and arts and sciences were each awarded $10,000 from Emerson.

An investment in innovation came to fruition as Emerson officially introduced its $35 million Helix Innovation Center on April 27. The 40,000-square-foot center, located on the University of Dayton campus, will serve as a commercial building controls and HVAC technology lab.

University of Dayton students designed “supermarkets of the future” as part of the E-Week Innovation Challenge sponsored by Emerson during the university’s Engineers Week. The contest encouraged participants to deliver innovative ideas that demonstrate new approaches to today’s supermarket challenges. 

The “home inside a building” will serve as a working laboratory, enabling faster testing of the company’s future innovations in comfort, energy savings, and connected-home concepts.
