The goal of the CVU International Student Research Competition is to assist talented students, working in groups under the guidance of a professor, to focus on a relevant research question, and create an engaging output as a response. It is up to the students to interpret the theme, and outline how their research will address it, including how the funds will be used to support the intended outcome. In fact, the ultimate objective of this award is to give the chance to students of any discipline to immerse themselves—for the first time, in detailed, academic/applied research, under the guidance of a professor—in a topic in which they are particularly interested and invested. Thus, design/build studio proposals are also welcomed, with practical outputs of the research, in addition to academic research proposals.
International Student Research Competition
Designed for students working collaboratively under the guidance of a professor, this competition proposes an annual theme and relies on participants to develop a relevant research question/challenge and define the solution, including how funds will support the outcome.
