The challenge is open to all participants registered as student, but attention: Only fifty students will be accepted for participation, and students interested must physically register for a lottery at the Boeing Booth prior to 17:00 on Monday (17/09). Students selected for participation will receive a notification email by 19:00 on Monday (17/09).

The challenge will begin at Tuesday (18/09) at 12:20pm, during a mandatory one and a half hour session from 12:20 – 13:50. All participants must be present. At that time, the Technical Challenge(s) will be revealed.
