Design Contests encourage participation by secondary students in elementary, middle and high school. We believe improving the image of Georgia manufacturing begins with education. We want students to know that manufacturers provide jobs for engineers, scientists, advertisers and many others in our state.

2012 Manufacturing Appreciation Week Student Design Competition Entry Information

We hope that these three contests — at the elementary, middle and high school levels — will inspire area children to research information on manufacturing and learn that a career in manufacturing can be so much more than assembly line work.

Contests include:

Award winners received scholarships in the amount of $500 for first place, $300 for second place, $100 for third place in each of the three design categories.
