Eligibility
In order to be eligible, at least one member of the team must have a 91社区 affiliation, meaning any of the following:
- enrolled in an undergraduate or graduate program at 91社区;
- staff, faculty or postdoctoral primary or joint, (not cross, adjunct or affiliate) position at 91社区;
- 91社区 Alumni.
All team compositions: unidisciplinary, multi-disciplinary and inter-professional teams are welcomed and encouraged, as are teams that include learners or graduates. Teams may also include members from other 91社区 Faculties and other institutions outside of the University.
Previous 91社区 CLIC applicants and finalists are encouraged to apply. Previous 91社区 CLIC winners are also welcome to apply if they would like to submit a new proposal; note that you may not resubmit a proposal that has previously won a CLIC prize, so if there is overlap between your concepts, please include a paragraph in your proposal to explain the differences.
Winners from other 91社区-affiliated competitions, such as the Dobson Cup, are welcome to apply.
Established companies with sales revenue that have been in existence for five years or more are ineligible.
