2023-2024 CASS Student Design Competition
The IEEE Circuits and Systems Society (CASS) invites you to participate in the 8th CASS Student Design Competition. The CASS Student Design Competition is a worldwide competition where undergraduate students will suggest and execute projects on electrical engineering and related areas. The focus should be on finding a solution to a real-life problem based on circuits and systems.
The competition will take place in three phases, the first at the chapter level, the second at the regional level, and the final at the world level. The final will take place during the 2024 IEEE International Symposium on Circuits and Systems (ISCAS 2024) in Singapore.
CASS will reimburse the travel costs for the trip to ISCAS 2024 for the four finalists, one for each region - Regions 1-7 (USA and Canada), Region 8 (Europe, Middle East, Africa), Region 9 (Latin America), and Region 10 (Asia, Australia, Pacific), as well as ISCAS registration. The winning team will be awarded $3,000 USD.
