The James Dyson Award is an international student design and engineering competition that is run by the James Dyson Foundation, a global charity which exists to inspire the next generation of engineers.
The James Dyson Award challenges students and recent graduates of design, engineering and related disciplines to design something that solves a problem. The best invention internationally is awarded $45,000 in prize money, and their university receives $7,500.
We would love to be able to give a global platform to the talented students at Duke University and hope you will encourage them to enter the James Dyson Award by mentioning the competition in your lectures, sending an email to students or advertising on the university intranet.
More details about the competition and how to enter can be found at www.jamesdysonaward.com. The competition will close on July 19, 2016.
