Student Paper Competition
CARSP, and more specifically the CARSP Young Professionals' Committee, hosts an annual competition for a scientific paper, written by a student registered at a Canadian university, on any aspect of motor vehicle traffic safety. For several years, and ending in 2017, the competition was sponsored by the Insurance Bureau of Canada (IBC). CARSP is very grateful for IBC's support. Unfortunately, there was no competition in 2018 due to lack of a sponsor. Western Ergonomics graciously sponsored both the 2019 and the 2021 Student Paper Competition and helped us to continue this legacy (the 2020 CARSP Conference was cancelled due to COVID-19).
If you are interested in sponsoring this competition, please contact info@carsp.ca for more information.
