Introduction

In 2015, high school teams will participate as a track within the main competition. This is an exciting change for the high school members. Not only will they be able to compete against other high schools, but will have the great experience of the Giant Jamboree. High school teams will be responsible for the same registration fees and Jamboree fees as the collegiate teams and therefore the same timeline, deadlines and attendance dates as the collegiate teams. The Giant Jamboree is from September 24 to September 28.

Previous Teams

2014 CSIA_South Korea – Grand Prize winner

The 2014 CSIA South Korea team showed excellence in their project because they were able to complete their designed construct and run comprehensive tests to show that it produced their desired effect. The testing of their designed parts really set them apart from other teams because they showed multiple ways in which their construct, designed to produce CaCO3 for biocementation, worked. They also provided and workable application for their project to show how it could be applied in reality. Combined with an easy to follow wiki, team CSIA_South Korea clearly showed the importance and validity of their very complete project

2014 CoBRA – Best Presentation

This team had the best presentation project for 2014, because of their clear presentation style and development of the importance of their research question. The students who presented the project placed a heavy emphasis on the need of their project on a local and global scale. They then proceeded logically through their project by first outlining how all of the aspects of the project (Human Practice, Business and Wet Lab) related to their research project. This presentation was persuasive and showed the importance and need of their project.
