What is the Student Design Competition & Prizes
The ASME Student Design Competition, sponsored by Boeing, provides a platform for ASME Student Members to present their solutions to a range of design problems - from everyday household tasks to groundbreaking space exploration. Each team is required to design, construct and operate a prototype meeting the requirements of an annually determined problem statement.
