Photography contest
How does the Faculty inspire you?
Students, Faculty members, teaching staff, and administrative and technical personnel: express your artistic creativity and take part in the 150th anniversary photo contest!
Your work may even find its place in a major exhibition at the CMU.
The Contest
This contest invites you to capture your perspective, memories, or special connection with the Faculty: a place, an atmosphere, an experience, a symbol… or anything that inspires you! The work may take the form of a photograph, a drawing, a painting, or a mixed-media creation.
Selected works will be exhibited at the CMU and highlighted through publication on the website and social media.

Approximately 20 submissions will be chosen by a dedicated jury. A Special Prize will also be awarded through a public vote (Faculty members, general public — everyone will be able to vote).
