Requirements

This competition is open to undergraduate student members of the society who design a relevant engineering product for an environmental or biological application.

Designs may reflect a wide spectrum of approaches ranging from management practice development to equipment design to bioreactor or ecological system design.

Students first submit a written design report, up to 15 pages in length, that describes the design, as well as extensive or substantial test or performance data obtained from (1) a prototype or physical model of the machine or critical component, and/or (2) a computer simulated test of the system or process.

Based on those reports, 3 finalists are invited to the Annual International Meeting (AIM) of the ASABE where they make an oral presentation about their project.
