THE OBJECTIVE
Leif Johan Hauge, Class of 2018
N95 respirators are not designed for children or people with facial hair because a proper fit cannot be achieved.
California wildfires have become such a normal occurrence that residents must keep respiratory protection ready at all times.
Design a reusable N95 mask that is comfortable, versatile, and sustainable.

Boston is an incubator for innovation, and we’re conveniently located in the center of it all. Our city has grown into one of the most vital, technologically advanced hotspots in the world. It could inspire you as much as it does us.
WELCOME TO
Boston’s most famous nickname, The Hub, was invented in 1858 to reflect the city’s central role in the nation’s intellectual and business life. Since then, the city has grown into one of the most vital cities in the world, recently voted the top global city for innovation—beating out San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York City, and Beijing with arts, cuisine, music, sports, and recreation to equal the renowned science, technology, and startup scenes. At Wentworth, you’ll be at the epicenter of it all.
