How to apply?
To be part of this conference you have to be undergraduate or graduate students of civil engineering.
First step you need to do is to fill application form which is given in APPLICATIONS
and send it to e-mail [email protected]. Very important thing to say is that when applying you have to make a team of two persons. That can be your colleague, best friend, girlfriend/boyfriend, whoever you like.
You also have to submit a scientific paper (one per team) which will be presented during conference and you have to make a drafting of a small scale model which you will be making. Rules how the paper has to look like and rules how model has to be built and dimension limits you can find bellow.
In the application form first you have to write an abstract of your scientific paper. Paper doesn't have to be allready written, it is enough for you to know what are you going to write about. After applications ended, we will inform you are you accepted or not. If you are, then you can finish your paper. It will be done this way in the case of great number of applications cause we will accept maximum of 18 teams.
This may seem as a lot of work for application, but trust us, you wont be sorry!
And what if you don't study civil engineering? You can participate to as long as you have a paper related to some of the fields of civil engineering. Still you have to make a model. Rest of the rules are the same.
