Applicants had the chance to ask questions to the client (that\u2019s us!) on a 1-2-1 basis, meaning they could discuss their concept and get feedback on what we were looking for from the design. As for the prizes, not only will the winners receive some cash, but there are also a range of work experience opportunities available with some of the University\u2019s strategic partners. We wanted to make sure this competition was as meaningful as possible, so we\u2019ve also offered feedback to all applicants.
