2009-10 Extreme Redesign: The Ultimate 3D Printing Challenge
Thank you to all those who submitted entries in this year's contest and congratulations to the winners in each category!
Have you ever had a great idea for a way to improve a product that you use everyday? Or are you creative enough to design a building or work of art from scratch? Either way, here's your opportunity…
The 2009-10 Extreme Redesign Challenge consists of three categories:
- Middle / high school level engineering challenge (In Europe: School/College Engineering, 16-18 years old)
- College level engineering challenge (In Europe: University Engineering, 18+ years old)
- Art & architectural challenge open to students of all grade levels
- "Green" bonus category - one entry from all submitted will be chosen as the best environmentally friendly design
In
the past, thousands of students have submitted their great ideas and
brought those ideas to life with a Dimension 3D Printer. Dimension,
the world’s leading provider of desktop 3D printers, is once
again calling on middle school, high school and college-level CAD
students worldwide to send us their best, innovative and creative
redesigns for the Extreme Redesign Engineering Challenge. In addition,
graphic arts and architectural students are invited to send us their
best, innovative and creative designs for the 2009-10 Extreme Redesign
Art & Architecture Challenge.
Winners
in each of the categories will receive a $2,500 (approx €1,715)
scholarship and runner-ups will receive $1,000 (approx €684)
scholarships. Semi-finalists from each category will be printed on
a Dimension 3D Printer and the models will be sent back to the students
along with a $50 gift card (approx €35). Everyone who enters
the contest will receive an official Extreme Redesign T-shirt, courtesy
of Dimension 3D Printers.
