IRF Student Essay Competition

The IRF Student Essay Competition is an annual contest held to recognize promising road research. This competition is open to all students attending an IRF Member university in good standing, as well as IRF Fellows currently enrolled as full time students. At the judges’ discretion, a maximum of three winning essays will receive a US $500 cash award. Additionally, the winning essays will be published in the IRF Examiner, a freely available periodical journal featuring peer-reviewed technical papers by leading industry professionals. The categories and related topics for the competition are developed based on input from IRF Members regarding their research needs. Participants may choose any topic within any category for their essays, or professors may wish to limit the topics based on their particular curriculum.
