Students
You're doing a great job!  Keep it up!

Teachers

Thank you to all the teachers who visited our booth at the ASTA convention.  Keep up your great work!

Without you, there is no Future City Competition!  You are the key catalyst for your students to learn from  the Future City Competition Experience. If you sponsor student teams, they will not only apply classroom learning, but develop new skills like teamwork, planning, time management, and public speaking.  They will build valuable lifelong knowledge and cherished lifelong memories. You will meet STEM objectives as well the objectives of other programs like 21st Century Learner.

It all starts with you.  Register today!       For additional information, click here

Judges

There are two types of judges, competition judges and society judges.  Competion judges are teams of professional engineers who evaluate each student team's competition deliverables. The judges use competition rubrics to determine scores. Competition Judge Manuals are now available for download.  For more information, click here

Each year, Arizona Region professional societies present awards to competing student teams based on criteria estblished by the society.  Judges from each society are selected by the society from its membership.  Contact your society to volunteer to become a society judge.  Click here for the latest information from societies.  For the 2011-12 Society Judge Training Session presentation, click here.

Volunteers

We are ALL volunteers in the Arizona Region.  Every teacher-sponsor, engineer-mentor, judge, and member of the leadership team is a volunteer.  The spirit of helping others is strong here.  Each year our volunteers contribute thousands of hours to promote and produce the Future City Competition here.

Join us today to help our Arizona Region students build a better future.

Parent encouragement is key to the success of student teams.  Teams with ongoing parent support are more likely to complete competition deliverables and have a lifelong learning experience.
