SolidWorks Announces Student Design Contest Winners
CONCORD,
MA, Mar 10, 2008 - SolidWorks Corporation today announced the winners of its
second annual Student Design Contest, saying the winning student designs
nearly matched the quality of professional engineers’ entries.
Judged in parallel with the SolidWorks World 2008 Design Contest, the
student contest spotlights future designers and engineers from middle school
through graduate school using SolidWorks software. “It’s important to
recognize the work of students who are just starting out in their
computer-aided design and engineering work,” said Marie Planchard, director
of worldwide education markets for SolidWorks Corporation. “Yet it’s evident
from the work they submitted that their designs stand up to the best of the
professional design contest.”
This year’s student winners are:
- 1st prize – Matsuo Nezawa, Tokyo Metropolitan Rokugou
Technical High School – Strawberry, Cacti, and Fruits.

- 2nd prize – Lukasz Korenkiewicz, Bialystok Technical
University – Adrian RC Helicopter.

- 3rd prize – Donald Erich, Clemson Engineering Technologies
Laboratory – Multi-Unit Residence

“I’m thrilled to win second prize,” said winner Lukasz Korenkiewicz of
the Bialystok Technical University in Poland . “It validates my rapidly
developing design and engineering skills, which have improved steadily since
I started using SolidWorks last year. The software has been easy to learn
yet is packed with capabilities for helping me realize any product I can
imagine.”
Students earned cash prizes for their efforts. To see all the entries,
