Competitions

If you plan to attend or are already participating in a competition, find all the essential information you need to know.

We currently have 35 teams that address a wide variety of disciplines including watercraft, civil & sustainability teams. Teams generally design and manufacture a device or product (e.g. a robot or a vehicle). Teams often choose to enter a regional, national, or international competition with their device, to represent UBC Engineering and put their hard work to the test. UBC supports existing teams, fosters the development of new ones, and encourages a wide range of collaboration with campus and external partners, helping them achieve their potential through adequate access to resources.

To be eligible to participate in design teams, students must:

  • Be a current UBC student that is enrolled in and taking courses in the UBC Vancouver campus.
    • Students on a co-op work term are registered in the corresponding co-op course and are classified as full-time students.
    • Students on internships (not part of the co-op program) and not registered in any courses, are not classified as students because they are not enrolled in any courses.
  • Have completed all necessary requirements (EDI Trainings, Safety Trainings, etc.)
  • 由其他志愿者Insu受伤rance - UBC undergraduate students (all departments) are eligible for this.
    • These happen twice a year - in November and January.
    • Students who have been added to a design team rosterafterstudent group registration (SuperApp) are not covered by insurance and should be engaging in prototyping work.

All students involved with engineering design teams must follow the UBCStudent Code of Conductfound in the Academic Calendar. Failure to comply with the Code of Conduct is grounds for team termination.
