The announcement for the 2017 Acoustical Society of America Student Design Competition has been released. The competition involves the design of a multi-purpose facility with auditorium and rehearsal room at a small university located in a densely populated urban setting. This year the competition allows posters to include a digital code (e.g. a QR code) for the inclusion of supplementary material. Teams must register by May 1, 2017, and final entries that are not hand-delivered at the conference must be received by June 19, 2017. More information can be found here.
