The WEF Student Design Competition promotes real-world design experience for students interested in pursuing education and careers in water and wastewater engineering and science. WEF hosts two different competitions at WEFTEC: the Wastewater Design and Environmental Design.

The competition tasks students to prepare and present a design that helps solve a water quality issue. Teams evaluate alternative ideas, perform calculations, and recommend solutions in the form of an engineering report and presentation.

The application will include both an abstract and either an executive summary or in-progress report. An in-progress report does not need to be fully complete and will not be considered when the team is scored at WEFTEC. However, it should include sufficient detail for the WEF® SDC Subcommittee to determine the scope of the project and whether it meets the criteria set forth herein.

This competition has not yet listed it's awards.
