International Space Settlement Design Competition - Awards

Awards

At the International competition, the company with the best proposal is "awarded the contract". There are no runners-ups, as there would not be any in a real-life setting.

The Competition organizers also recognize exceptional participants with several awards at the end of the International Finals.

  • Jingle Lutz Award

This award is given in honor of the best female presenter on the final day of the competition. It originated from its namesake, who would sit at the back of competitions and take notes specifically on all the female presenters, to encourage girls to take a larger part in such competitions.

  • Best Male Presenter

The Australian team generally brings with them a plaque for the best male presenter, in response to the Jingle Lutz Award.

  • Dick Edwards Award

In honor of the Competition co-founder who died in early 2009, this award was established for the best student leader from each company. The winners are chosen by advisers and company "CEOs."
