Hosting the West Midlands round of the IMechE Undergraduate Design Challenge

10 May 2017

On May 9th, Harper Adams welcomed IMechE representatives to judge the regional design contest. Four teams were competing - three from Coventry and one from Harper. 

The Design Challenge Competition gives first and second year undergraduates a taste of the ‘real world’ of engineering by challenging them to design, create, present and run a device to a strict technical specification. 

The competition enables participants to gain real-industry experience, practical employability skills and enhanced business and people skills, all within a set time frame.

Yesterday's winners were from Coventry, who go on to the national final.
