Teams are comprised of one to six students. If any team members are post-graduate students, the team size is limited to two. Only students currently enrolled at AASTMT are eligible.

The competition committee encourages multidisciplinary teams from different colleges.

It is eligible to submit a project developed within a course during the academic year 2022/2023. You will need to mention the supervisor of the course during the initial registration form.

The project boards:
• Theoretical approach – from one to two posters size A2
• Empirical approach – one to two posters size A2 with the physical project or two to three boards size A1 with an optional physical model.

A written Executive Summary- A4 document that does not exceed two pages, providing a brief written summary of your recommendations.

A Team Introduction video (maximum 2 minutes) to introduce the project team members and colleges. This will not be shared with judges but will be used in introductions.

A Project Presentation video (maximum 10 minutes) to clearly explain your solution. You may use slides and video recordings from the project but should not include the team members' logos, templates, or other identifying materials. Any identifying material in the project presentation could bias judges and risk disqualification. This video should not introduce the problem – that is done outside this presentation. Instead, it should describe the solutions recommended and the approaches taken to create those solutions.

A letter signed by team members certifying that the project work was completed solely by the team members.

Contact information for the team members and a publication-quality photo of the team members (at least 300 dpi).

You are encouraged to include an appendix containing any project background you share. For example, you might explain how you approached the dilemma with different tasks. The appendix may be written informally and will not be judged in evaluating your work may use the content

The competition projects are used in many ways – the students use these projects to fulfill widely varying objectives. For that reason, each problem has a base problem and optional extensions. The students involved can determine the appropriate scope and level of effort.

Create reports that summarize the options explored, results recorded, and your recommendations.

In both your video and backup materials, assume that you have a mixed audience – a board of directors that includes technical and non-technical managers, all with expertise in the problem domain.

Since this is a team competition, your project must reflect your team's work, not that of any student assistant or faculty advisor. That said, this is also a learning endeavor. It is perfectly acceptable to seek help learning some skills, project management, and other skills necessary to complete the project successfully.

Please carefully read the Rules and Guidelines to ensure that you follow all the rules. Look to the Judging Criteria to see how your work will be evaluated.

There are many ways to approach the SDG11 targets, many opportunities to "fill in the blanks" by making reasonable assumptions, many options to evaluate, and many opportunities to demonstrate creativity.
