The Task Force on American Innovation (TFAI), in which AAU participates, has launched the American Collegiate Innovation Video Contest. The contest challenges students to use their creativity and imagination in a three-minute video that demonstrates how federally funded scientific research has resulted in discoveries that have benefitted society.
AAU campuses are asked to encourage their students to participate. The first-place winner will receive a $1,000 prize and a trip to Washington, DC to participate in an awards ceremony and a Congressional briefing at the U.S. Capitol.
The deadline for students to send in their videos is Thursday, May 31. Details about the competition are attached.
