    Step up to the challenge.

    One world. Unlimited possibilities.

    Let’s face it — the world needs help. The kind of help that happens when you take the top young minds from around the globe and turn them loose on solving the world’s toughest problems. That’s what the Imagine Cup is all about. This is your chance to innovate and create, show the world what you’ve got, and win some serious prizes. Simply put, it’s your chance to use the power of technology to change the world — and have some fun while you’re at it.

     

    Imagine Cup 2008 (the “Contest”) is a skill contest designed to recognize students who demonstrate excellence in a diverse range of technical and artistic pursuits, and seeks innovative contest entries that address the competition theme.  The Contest consists of nine (9) separate categories, each referred to as “invitationals”.

    Software Design
    Embedded Development
    Game Development
    Project Hoshimi
    IT Challenge
    Algorithm
    Photography
    Short Film
    Interface Design

    Call for papers: Special Issue on Cultural Aspects of Interaction Design

    Full Paper Due: Extended to 31 March 2008
    The International Journal of Design is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal devoted to publishing research papers in all fields of design, including industrial design, visual communication design, interface design, animation and game design, architectural design, urban design, and other design related fields. It aims to provide an international forum for the exchange of ideas and findings from researchers across different cultures and encourages research on the impact of cultural factors on design theory and practice. It also seeks to promote the transfer of knowledge between professionals in academia and industry by emphasizing research in which results are of interest or applicable to design practices.
