Welcome to the 2009 Ninth 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).

Projects are evaluated by judges experienced in the field of engineering and six awards are given based on specific criteria. Held on the first Saturday of May, 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.
