The BEST Engineering Competition for students will be held from 24 to 28 October, 2025. The event is organized by the BEST Lviv public organization.
For five days, participants will compete in teams to create engineering solutions that will help in the post-war reconstruction of Ukraine. This is a unique opportunity to demonstrate knowledge, practical skills and teamwork. In addition, participants can practice their networking skills with company representatives, attend useful workshops and lectures, as well as receive mentoring support during the competition.
The competition will be held in two categories:
- Innovative Design – a conceptual category for creative engineering ideas: teams offer new or improved solutions to current problems using drawings or 3D models;
- Team Design – a practical category in which student teams solve problems in the field of embedded systems, IoT, electronics and mechanics, creating working prototypes of devices.
On one of the competition days, teams in the Innovative Design category analyze the assigned problem and develop conceptual solutions. The following day, teams in the Team Design category create functional prototypes based on these concepts.
Registration is open until 13 October.
Don’t miss the opportunity to become part of the competition!
