William FaulknerThe School of Industrial Design is pleased to announce the finalists for Georgia Tech's 2012 IDSA Student Merit Award:
Finalists will present their bodies of industrial design work to a panel of local design professionals.
In an effort to encourage, reward, and celebrate excellence in industrial design education, IDSA encourages student chapters to nominate its best and brightest for the Chapter Student Merit Award Competition. Each student chapter holds a competition, juried by professional designers, to select the one Student Merit winner who will represent their school at the District Conference. The winner will present at the IDSA District Conference, and a jury of professional designers select the National Student Merit Award winner for the district. Each year, the five National Student Merit winners are invited to display their work at the National Conference. This elevated recognition serves to connect undergraduate design students with the IDSA's national scope while honoring them in a national arena for academic design achievement.
