SWANA Students to Select Teams for International Competition

December 14, 2023

Round up your colleagues; it’s time for a competition!

The Solid Waste Association of North America (SWANA) Young Professionals (YP) Division is holding its 9th annual International Solid Waste Design Competition (SWDC).

Students have the chance to participate in the SWDC by creating a team. Team members must be student members of SWANA in order to participate. 

If you are having difficulty finding other SWANA young professionals to join your team, don’t fret.

SWANA provides FREE membership for full-time students who are pursuing undergraduate or graduate degrees, and PhD candidates, with a focus on environmental sciences, solid waste management, or sustainability.

Once your team has been approved, you can participate in this exciting competition.

SWANA’s YP SWDC aims to provide design experience for students interested in pursuing an education or career in solid waste management.

Did we mention there’s a chance to win prizes?

Team entries are now being accepted for the program. The application deadline is January 8, 2024.
