The UNIFORCE initiative brings together 2 dynamic panels - the Jury panel (Academic and Industry expert) and Student Leadership review board —to collaboratively assess submitted projects.
Each panel offers a distinct lens: The Jury is made up of experts to evaluate research depth and innovation, as well as assess the feasibility, impact, and delivery potential; while the Student Leadership committee champions representation, inclusivity, community value and student voice.
Together, they ensure a balanced, forward-thinking review process that celebrates creativity, strategic thinking, and real-world application. This year's theme is "projects for a sustainable Scotland".
