Knovel, the leading provider of a Web-based application integrating technical information with analytical and search tools, started off the Knovel University Challenge with a new twist - additional prizes will be awarded on a weekly basis, giving students 12 more opportunities to win.
The annual Knovel University Challenge, now in its seventh year, continues to grow in popularity among engineering students globally. Faculty increasingly use it as a tool to introduce future engineers to top-notch resources available in the library as students learn how to research, problem-solve and prepare for a competitive workforce. Engineers at more than 300 companies worldwide incorporate Knovel into their workflow, so the University Challenge helps students to jumpstart their use of a resource that will be relevant throughout their careers.
More than 400 of the world's top universities provide access to Knovel. Current engineering and science students from any of these universities can learn more, register and participate at www.knoveluniversitychallenge.com. Participation spans the globe and many professors incorporate the challenge into their curriculum.
The Knovel University Challenge presents a series of questions on engineering-related topics, and students are encouraged to use Knovel and related features to find the correct answers. Prizes are awarded weekly to students of top-participating universities and at the conclusion of the contest.
The deadline for Grand Prize entries is Midnight on December 1, 2012.
