Tips for this competition
Practical Job and Scholarship guidance. These tips do not replace official rules or create new eligibility requirements.
- Coordinate with the relevant college because university-level entry requires nomination.
- Prepare a clear three-minute explanation for a general audience.
- Check the official page for the Fall 2026 date when announced.
- Study the scoring criteria and previous winners before deciding what evidence, prototype, essay, research or portfolio will best support the entry.
- Confirm country, age, team, education and organization restrictions and whether one person may enter multiple submissions.
- Follow the required file format, word/time limits and naming rules exactly; technical non-compliance can disqualify a strong entry.
- Keep proof of submission and submit before the deadline rather than relying on the final hour.
Verification notes
Checked the current University of Sharjah UoS-3M page on 2026-08-29. It states the competition was postponed to Fall Semester 2026, the new date is TBC, nominees may proceed with registration, participation is by college nomination, and it lists the prize amounts and certificates. No registration deadline or event date is currently stated, so those fields remain null.
