  • Contest Judges

    Students present their work to judges, who work in teams of three, to provide feedback on all students’ work and select projects to advance to the next level of the competition. NHD relies on consensus judging, which means that instead of giving entries numerical scores, judges rank the entries after discussion within the judging team. No previous judging experience is required.
