DRAINAGE COMPETITIONIn this design scenario, you will be designing a solution to address two existing runs of storm drains that need to be rehabilitated as replacement is not optimal. Students will have the opportunity to demonstrate their technical knowledge and gain valuable experience by presenting their solutions to industry professionals. |
STORMWATER COMPETITIONIn this scenario, students will be designing a stormwater management system at a new commercial development to meet local regulatory requirements for stormwater |
The competition is open to undergraduate students enrolled in accredited colleges or universities in the United States and its territories. Whether working individually or in teams of up to five members, students from relevant fields such as civil engineering and environmental sciences are encouraged to participate.
Registration for the Design Competition is Closed.
All project submissions must be received by November 10, 2024. Presentations will take place in early December 2024, with winners announced later that month.
The top teams from each track will be awarded cash prizes, recognizing their outstanding achievements. Prizes for each track are as follows:
Teams must complete the online registration form during the registration period. Hurry, as participation is limited to 100 teams per track!
Our expert judging panels, comprised of professionals from various engineering disciplines within Contech Engineered Solutions, will evaluate submissions.
The top three teams from each track will have the opportunity to present their projects to the judging committees via live online meetings.
Join us in shaping the future of urban stormwater and drainage management. Let your ideas flow and make a difference in the world of civil engineering!
