National Designathon

Applications Now Open!

Event Description 

National Designathon is the ultimate student design competition of the year! This event brings together the most creative design thinkers, innovators and future leaders to tackle some of the most challenging problems in our society. Marking the end of the 2020 - 2021 season, the National Designathon invites all the winning teams from the local Designathons to compete for the national title.

 

Limited spots are also open by application. If you are a student that thinks differently, has experience with design, and wants to make an impact, we would love to have you attend.
