The NPCA Foundation Student Competition provides a unique opportunity to engage students and academia with the precast concrete industry. Under the guidance of an academic advisor/professor and an NPCA member mentor, students compete in teams to solve real-world problems using precast concrete as the solution.
After teams submit their entries to a panel of judges for review, the top teams are invited to present their entries to the industry at The Precast Show 2023 in Columbus, Ohio, where a winning team is chosen.
