Open to high school, college, and university students. |
|
Students can design and build the vehicles as an entire class project or school group activity. The group must be affiliated with a school or school network (e.g., home-schooling network). Students can divide themselves into groups that focus on various aspects of vehicle design and operation. |
|
Teams must have at least three students with at least one faculty member or advisor affiliated with the school involved in the process. One student should be designated as the team spokesperson. |
|
Individuals from industry, businesses, research organizations, and/or government can act as mentors during the design and building process. These individuals can provide students and their instructors with guidance and technical expertise, but cannot be actively involved* in construction and operation. |
|
*"Active involvement" can be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. |
