Welcome to the 2006 Sixth Annual Student Design Contest webpage, hosted by Rochester Institute of Technology IEEE student chapter, funded by Fairchild Semiconductor, RIT Electrical Engineering, and the IEEE Region 1.

The RIT IEEE Annual Student Design Contest invites students in accredited engineering schools to showcase their senior level, undergraduate, design projects. Each year we mail contest advertisement posters to schools in the northeast US and Canada (IEEE regions 1, 2, and 7), however we hope that students outside these regions will also apply.

Projects are evaluated by judges experienced in the field of engineering and six awards are given based on specific criteria. Held on the Saturday before Mother's Day of May each year, the contest includes breakfast, lunch, a social hour and a banquet dinner with guest speakers. The student design contest is a great way to obtain feedback from industry professionals as well as gain promotion of your design project and connectivity to other engineers.
