The theme of 2019-20 Future City Competition is Clean Water: Tap Into Tomorrow. The Illinois state-level competition will take place on January 18, 2020. The venue of the competition will be Whitney Young Magnet School, Chicago.
The students are allowed to work as a team with an educator and a STEM mentor. The requirements of the competition include a virtual city design, a 1500 words essay, a scale model of the city, and a short presentation to be presented in front of a panel of STEM professionals. The virtual city design will be developed with the aid of SimCity software. The scale model of the city should be built with the aid of recycled materials.
The students are asked to address an authentic and real-world question: How can we make the world a better place?
