    hi all

    i was wondering does anyone know of any engineering compeitions.

    i was think of something where you would be given certain criteria and are tasked with making something.

    i remember when i was in college i heard of a few but they were aimed at undergraduates.

    any input is much appreicated, when i goggle the topic it just comes up with comps for undergraduates

    thanks

    There are competitions like the national apprentice competition and the world skills competition both are in association with FAS but have criteria regarding age and qualifications of candidates , I'm sure there are other similar competitions too but I cant think of them at the moment.

    Electronics design competition:

    Farnell Live Edge http://www.live-edge.com (Next entry Q3 '09 I think).

    I'd also be interested if there were more out there.
