Airbus launches international contest for students
TOULOUSE – Airbus is launching an international competition “Fly Your Ideas†for student teams worldwide to come up with innovative ideas to shape the future of aviation and help to enhance the sector’s eco-efficiency.
The objective: creating more value with less impact on the environment.
The competition is open to college and university students from around the world, studying a degree, Masters or PhD in any academic discipline, from engineering to marketing, business to science and philosophy to design.
The proposals can look at a wide range of topics including new materials, products and/or processes as well as aircraft performance, manufacturing and organisational and operational performance.
A top prize of €30,000 is offered to the team whose idea demonstrates the greatest potential for improvement. The teams will advance through different competitive and challenging rounds, concluding with a live final at the Le Bourget Airshow in June 2009.
“The Fly Your Ideas competition gives students the opportunity to work with Airbus. Together we can share fresh and innovative ideas and thus shape the future of aviationâ€, said Tom Enders, President and CEO of Airbus.
