Midwest Student Design Competition
On behalf of the Indiana Water Environment Association (IWEA) and the Central States Water Environment Association (CSWEA) we would like to introduce you to a few student opportunities offered through the 5th Annual Midwest Student Design Competition (MSDC). This year, the competition will be held on Monday, April 8, 2024 in Madison, Wisconsin at the Monona Terrace Convention Center. This is a unique opportunity for students at the college level to demonstrate their ability to evaluate alternatives, develop a comprehensive design, and present a solution that meets the requirements of a socially relevant problem statement in the water and wastewater fields.
WEF Student Chapters
WEF’s Student Membership program has been operational for over 25 years and has over 1,000 participants. The program was created for those students who are regularly enrolled in colleges, universities, or other technical programs and spend at least one-half of their time on academic course work or equivalent. Over the years, WEF has expanded and improved upon the services offered to its Student Members in an effort to enhance and facilitate both
their current studies and their transition into the working environment.
