Award-Winning Fast Learners
Fast Industrial Design Students Bring Home Five Acido Rocket Design Awards
We are proud to announce three Humber FAST Industrial Design students brought home five awards from the Association of Chartered Industrial Designers of Ontario (ACIDO) Rocket Show 2023 Design Awards including first place!
The ACIDO Rocket Awards is an annual competition for Ontario’s graduating industrial designers. Graduates nominated at the top of their class from Humber College, Carleton University, OCAD University, and Sheridan College have the opportunity to pitch their final year thesis projects to a jury of select industry professionals with the top winners announced at the annual Rocket Awards Ceremony.
It takes a village to help our students prepare for this competition and we greatly appreciate all of the coaches, educators, staff and faculty who helped 12 graduating students prepare and compete in this prestigious awards competition.
