National Design-Build Student Champs Offer Inside Look at DBIA Competition

It’s that time of the year when university students in architecture, engineering and construction programs nationwide start their journey as design-build competitors in DBIA’s National Design-Build Student Competition. The competition is as rigorous as the rewards are meaningful for students hoping to begin a career in the AEC industry.

Each year DBIA chooses a unique project to challenge student design-build teams. This year’s project is a parking facility with education classrooms on a liberal arts college campus in the Midwest United States.

This two-phase competition gives teams from colleges and universities the chance to respond to a Request for Qualifications (the first phase) and a Request for Proposals (the second phase), with the top three teams from the RFP phase presenting their proposals to a panel of industry leaders at the 2022 Design-Build Conference & Expo in Las Vegas this November. The competition is impressive and provides an incredible opportunity for young design-builders to meet and impress industry leaders one-on-one. In fact, many have turned their competition experience into job offers.
