競賽介紹
第四屆英國大學專題競賽開跑啦!每一年藉由比賽,發掘了許多專才型資優生,並提供高額獎學金以及進入英國名校的門票。今年仍以在科學及商業領域享譽國際的大學—The University of Sheffield和 Lancaster University—在臺主辦,期望今年臺灣學生依舊能大放異彩,在更寬廣的國際舞台,一展長才。
競賽主題
專題競賽分為科學與商業兩個項目,科學項目由 Sheffield 大學主辦,商業項目則由 Lancaster 大學主辦,學生可自由選擇任一項目進行專題計畫。

雪菲爾大學科學組競賽題目
Due to COVID-19, we are all being asked to wear face coverings in public places. However, these face coverings are really uncomfortable to wear as they restrict breathing and the user gets hot and sweaty when wearing them. Due to this, users are continuously either removing the mask or pulling the mask down when no people are around and then, in turn, replacing the mask when people are in close proximity. This procedure is really problematic as the users are continuously touching the mask and their face and, ultimately, contaminating themselves thus eliminating all the benefits of wearing the mask.
Please design a smart face covering that will open when the user is alone and then closing when someone is in close proximity. Therefore, the mask must be able to sense when someone is near and close, when the user is alone and open and visually signal to others when it is safe to approach (e.g LED’s ). Also, the user must be able to breathe when the mask is closed. Therefore, the students must utilize and adapt an ordinary mask or implement some sort of respirator system.
Your presentation should include the brief of the design, essential points of the design breakdown and deliverables. Everything you need for building a prototype is readily available such as PIR’s (proximity sensors), servo motors, MCU’s(A˙rduino), LED’s etc.

蘭卡斯特大學商業組競賽題目
The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the world and our way of living, requiring us to completely change our lifestyle and adopt new digital cultures. As future leaders, this is your chance to help the world embrace and move forward in the post COVID-19 era. Please work on a practical business proposal that is corona-proof to help the world adapt to a new “normal” way of living. It can be digital solutions, transportations, consumer products or services. Your budget is limited under one million pounds. Therefore, the budget distribution, estimated profit, short and long-term business developments and other details should be contained in your creative pitch deck.
