Humber Students Place Third in World Automotive Design Competition

Industrial Design students win international awardAn entry from three Humber Industrial Design students received third place in the first annual World Automotive Design Competition on February 14, 2002. The challenge was to design a shared mobility vehicle that reflects the unique character of the city and country where the designers live and study. The judges enjoyed the entry's comprehensive treatment of the sharing solution and felt that the entry demonstrated good research and stayed close to the design brief. Andy Anissimoff, Bruno Mediati and Jeff Young of the Industrial Design program were the recipients of $2,500 US.

"As a faculty, we're very proud of our students, especially bearing in mind that they were competing with four and five-year university students from around the world. This award is a reflection of the quality of education here at Humber College," said Ken Cummings, Industrial Design Program Coordinator, Humber School of Applied Technology.

The competition was held in conjunction with the Canadian International AutoShow. First place went to Art Center College of Design, Pasadena, USA, and second went to Coventry School of Art & Design, Coventry, England.
