About the KIVI Engineering Student Team Award

The KIVI Engineering Student Team Award was set up in 2022, partly at the instigation of Princess Mabel. This incentive award for student teams aims to give future engineers a boost, show what they are capable of as a team and give greater exposure to their innovative projects.

Eligible for the KIVI Engineering Student Team Award are student teams that distinguish themselves in their project/work on the basis of four competences; team spirit, innovativeness, social impact and expertise.
