Welcome back to our long overdue competition round-up! This is your chance to see some of the exciting competitions that are currently open for applications. From the Student Publication Awards to L’Oréal Brandstorm, we have picked out three competitions that could boost your career.
Student Publication Association (SPA) Awards
Claimed ‘the UK and Ireland’s top awards for student newspapers and magazines’, this competition has 21 categories that recognise the work of student publications. You can vote for students who have made great contributions to their publication, including best reporter, best student photographer and a new award for best human rights journalist.
Find more information on the SPA website.
Deadline: 7 March 2019
L’Oréal Brandstorm
The mission of this competition is to invent the future skincare experience for health-conscious consumers. The way the competition works is that you must:
- Build an amazing team of 3 superheroes to solve the mission
- Come up with the most innovative idea, sharpen it throughout the selection process and become the champion of your country.
- Fly to Paris, immerse yourself at L’Oréal’s headquarters and pitch your innovation to top L’Oréal executives.
Let’s backtrack from Paris for a second. Registration closing dates vary by country, but no registrations will be taken into consideration after 31 March 2019. You will then go through national selection and then onto the world finals in Paris.
Go to brandstorm.loreal.com to register.
Deadline: 31 March 2019
Coins Grand Challenge
Coins, a leading constructions software company, are running an undergraduate competition to find students who are passionate about working within the construction industry. Whether you study engineering, computer science, business or any course that can be applied to the build environment, then Coins want to hear from you.
To enter, send an 800-word essay or 3-10 minute video answering the question: What new and emerging technology will have the greatest impact on business in future years and how might those technologies be applied to the build environment, whether during construction or throughout the built life cycle?
