Design Team Competition (Oral Competition Only)
|
- 1. Design teams are to consist of three
or more students. These students may be any combination of graduate
and undergraduate students.
- 2. Any topic appropriate for engineering
design is eligible for the design competition.
- 3. Except by prior arrangement with the
Judging Coordinator, ALL MEMBERS of the design team must attend
the conference.
- 4. A letter of intent to participate must
be received by the Judging Coordinator. See key dates for timeline.
- 5. The letter must include the following:
- A) The name of the university,
the department, and the name, address, and phone number of the
faculty member responsible for the design class;
- B) The names of all members of
the design team with the team leader indicated;
- C) A brief description of what
is to be designed. Note: one page should cover this - If it's
an airplane design, I should be able to tell from the description
whether it is to be the next generation of jumbo jet or an ultralight.
I do not want detailed design criteria.
- D) A brief description of the approach
to be used in the design; again, one page should do it.
- E) The products of the design,
the deliverables, e.g. are you going to produce a working prototype,
a set of detailed fabrication drawings, a set of assembly drawings,
a model?
- 6. Each Student Branch is allowed to enter
multiple design teams in the design competition. Student delegates
should be limited to participate in only one design team. The
conference reserves the right to ask a school that is bringing
multiple design teams, to reduce that number if the need arises
due to space or scheduling conflicts.
Important Information Regarding Uploading Your Letter of Intent
You will need to upload your letter of intent TWICE to AIAA for the system to list your registration as complete. Upload it as your abstract (by Feb 2nd) and then after you receive an approval letter you (not the autogenerated confirmation but an actual approval letter) will need to upload your letter of intent AGAIN as your manuscript. If you are unsure if you have done this correctly PLEASE email Jay. You have until EOD February 23rd to complete these steps.

New for 2008 Student Conferences
Based on the recommendations of each region’s student conference
committee, the Student Paper Conference Chair(s) from each region may
nominate one student (per conference) for a summer undergraduate
internship at a NASA research center. Student nominations must be
from students who attended and participated in the regional conference
as presenters or conference organizers. Regions are encouraged to make
the selection at the regional conference so that the selection may be
announced at the conference awards ceremony. Specific criteria for the
selection is left to the Student Paper Conference Chair in coordination
with the Chief Judge for the conference. Along with the name of the
student nominee, the Student Paper Conference Chair MUST include the student’s resume, the student’s paper, and a short
statement of why the student was selected as that Student Paper
Conference’s nominee. NASA will use internal methods to select one
student intern from the submitted resumes and work directly with the
student to work out details of the internship. NASA will also forward
the name to the Chairman of the Student Conference Sub-Committee so
that regions can be notified of the final selection.
