WPI students are invited to participate in WPI’s 17th Annual Sustainability Project Showcase, hosted by the Office of Sustainability and Gordon Library! Submissions are open to any student project that tackles a sustainability-related problem, local or global, with consideration to at least one of the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). A $500 cash prize will be provided for winners in each of the graduate and undergraduate categories (including First Year/Mass Academy and IQP/MQP/Other). For consideration, submission by teams or individuals will require 1) a brief project description, 2) a PDF (poster or slide deck), 3) a brief video recording that presents the project and 4) identification of the appropriate SDG categories. We encourage the participation of ALL students who are interested in showcasing their sustainability project accomplishments, including those not interested in competing for an award (in which case students may opt out of the video recording).
