Ontario students who are passionate about engineering and public policy are encouraged to enter the Ontario Centre for Engineering and Public Policy's (OCEPP) 2013 Student Essay Competition.

The competition is open to all full-time undergraduate and graduate students registered at an Ontario university. This year, students will choose from five essay questions provided. There are separate categories for undergraduate and graduate students, and the winner in each category will receive a $1,000 award and registration to the centre's 2013 Public Policy Conference, to be held in Toronto on May 31.

Competition rules and winning papers from past competitions can be viewed from the "For Students" page of the OCEPP website.
