Student Showcase

Overview

SCAG Student Showcase

The Student Showcase challenges students to create posters or StoryMaps that innovatively tell a story, provide insight, showcase plans and projects, engage stakeholders, and illustrate the possibilities of open data at the regional level. Winners of the Student Showcase competition receive cash prizes. 

Competition finalists will be invited to attend SCAG’s Regional Conference and General Assembly  as conference fellows and will receive complimentary event registration, hotel accommodation, and admission to the conference. At the Regional Conference and General Assembly, conference fellows will present their posters and StoryMaps to elected officials and industry leaders from across Southern California.  

A panel of judges will select one poster and one StoryMap for the “Best in Show” award. Conference attendees will vote for their favorite poster and StoryMap to be recognized with an “Audience Award.” All four awards, each worth $1,500, will be announced at the end of the conference.
