Student Competition

Each year a unique project is created to challenge our student design-build competitors. This year’s project will be no different.

This three-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). In phase three, the top three teams after the RFP phase will present their proposals to a panel of industry leaders at the 2024 Design-Build Conference & Expo in Dallas, TX this November. The competition is impressive and provides an incredible opportunity for young design-builders.

Showcase Your Design-Build Skills to Industry Leaders

The National Design-Build Student Competition provides young design-builders the opportunity to create a project as a team, present it to some of the industry’s leading pros and earn national recognition for their good work. DBIA’s student competition provides an unparalleled opportunity for students to meet and impress design-build industry leaders one-on-one.
