Judging

This page is under active development and is in draft form. Nothing posted here is finalized.





Welcome to judging in iGEM 2016! If you’re new to iGEM, you’re probably trying to make sense of our requirements, medal criteria, part submission guidelines and other facets of iGEM so that you can present a great project at the Giant Jamboree.

We made many changes to judging in 2015, so for the 2016 season we are focusing on consolidation. We don't intend to make too many changes to how the judging functions, only to take the best of judging and make it even better!
