The ASME Student Design Competition 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.

To participate in the Student Design Competition teams must register in advance through the respective E-Fest regional website.

Registered teams must submit a video that validates the requirements of the competition: clearly verify the Playing Field and Sizing Box with dimensions, and the water collection and measurement systems by the Unloading Area. 10. The description of the device and its operation are not required at this time, as it will be part of the March 11 video. 11. Teams are also requested to submit a 2nd design validation video on March 4. This is not required, but a bonus factor based on the judges score of the design validation video will be used in the competition scoring. This 10-minute video or PowerPoint presentation with voice over should describe the team design process and should cover:

  • the design process and decisions made during the project
  • the description of the final device and its unique qualities
  • the procedures taken by the team to test during the fabrication of the device and ongoing validation and refinements in preparation for the competition

Teams that submit a design video will be scored from 0 to 10. This score will be incorporated into a Design Scoring Factor used to calculate the final device score for the competition as follows:

Eligibility:
Students participating in the competition must be undergraduate engineering students (any engineering discipline is allowed) and must be ASME student members. There is no limit on the number of students on a team or the number of teams from a school. Each student may only participate on one team (contribute to one device) – participants from schools fielding more than one team will be asked to affirm this at the competition.
