A Look into 2020 Taiwan International Student Design Competition’s Promotional Campaign-Tatung University, March 30th

On March 30th, the executive team of Taiwan International Student Design Competition (TISDC) went to Tatung University for the 8th domestic promotional campaign. The associate project director of TISDC, Prof. Shin-Fu Lee, introduced this year’s competition to the students and professors in detail. Around 120 attendees joined this event. It’s a very good chance for teachers and students to have design exchange. Thanks Tatung University for the arrangement.

The theme of 2020TISDC is “Action,” aiming to encourage students to take action right away to make good use of design to deal with the potential problems that people around the world are facing while turning the Earth into a more sustainable place for peole to live. The United Nations in 2015 proposed 17 Sustainable Development Goals (the SDGs), hoping global citizens could take these 17 issues seriously and take action to solve these urgent problems immediately. Accordingly, 2020TISDC takes this chance to remind design students to look into thes issues and see how they could use design to make the world a better place.

The special prize sponsor of 2020TISDC, TPCA Environment Foundation (TPCF), also cares a lot about the issue of building a sustainable environment. Thus, TPCF establishes the Brand Specified Special Prize: Environmental Sustainability Award in 2020TISDC. Thejury panel will select works “with significance for environmental sustainability”among the shortlisted entries in the Product Design category to win this award. The winner of this prize could win NTD100,000. Hope students could seize this golden opportunity and participate in this year’s compeition actively.

In the end, TISDC’s executive team would like to express its special thanks to Prof. Wen-Yuan Lee, head of Department of Media Design, Prof. Nikii Wang, Prof. Chia-Hua Lin, and Prof. Ching-Chih Liao from Department of Commercial Design, Ming Chuan University for their great support for 2020TISDC.
