Only a total of 10 projects have been shortlisted. The presentation and Q&A session will be held on 29 October 2015 in Sembmarine Admiralty Yard, Singapore.

The main objective of this competition is to inculcate awareness and motivate students to gain a sense of personal and group responsibility for their own environment and in the process, learn how to reason, think critically and act to protect it in a balanced way. The project also hopes to promote innovating thinking among students, encouraging them to develop new ideas, processes and equipment for the betterment of our environment. (hs)
