Welcome to the CAD Design Challenge, the inaugural event of DAUST's Mechathon initiative! As the first mechanical engineering competition of its kind in Senegal, this challenge marks the beginning of a larger movement to foster innovation and hands-on learning in mechanical engineering. Through this CAD competition, students across all academic levels will tackle real-world design problems, from creating practical storage solutions to developing smart mechanical systems. Divided into three skill-based categories - Beginner, Intermediate, and Senior - the challenge ensures that every participant can meaningfully contribute and grow their expertise. This cornerstone event of Mechathon represents our commitment to nurturing the next generation of mechanical engineers while promoting practical, innovative solutions to everyday challenges.
Ready to bring your ideas to life? Participating in the CAD Design Challenge is simple! First, determine your eligibility category based on your academic level - whether you're an IEP student, Freshman, Sophomore, or above. Then, register through our official challenge website to receive detailed project specifications for your category.
