The 2007/2008 Leading Edge Student Design Competition will focus on the coastal environment of beautiful Santa Barbara. Students entering Challenge 1 will design an Environmental and History Center with display space in an historic barn and students entering Challenge 2 will design a 3- unit townhouse-style student residence. Both projects will be located in the West Campus area of the University of California at Santa Barbara.

The Competition is open to all undergraduate and graduate students of architecture, engineering, drafting, and environmental design at two-year colleges, technical schools, four- and five-year colleges and universities. Students may enter as individuals or teams. The competition may be treated as a class project or a separate independent study. A faculty member must supervise all participants.

Final registration date is 28 March 2008. Visit the site to learn more.
