Taiwan International Student Design Competition 2025
The 2025 Taiwan International Student Design Competition (TISDC), on the theme “Diversity“, has been announced and scheduled for 12th May—7th July.
The purpose of TISDC is to encourage international creative design exchanges, develop creative design talents, showcase the international image of Taiwan on creative design, and establish Taiwan’s international design reputation.
The total prize fund for 2025 is approximately $126,000 in prize money — $14,000 of which are reserved for the winner of the Grand Prix. Awarding cups and certificates will also be awarded.
Details about the theme for 2025 are available on the official website:
Diversity is a key value in modern society, encouraging students to respect individual differences and engage with others with inclusivity and warmth. As part of its Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for 2030, the United Nations underscores the crucial role of diversity in advancing global development. Through the power of design, students can incorporate multicultural perspectives, stimulate innovation, and facilitate cross-boundary collaboration and inclusion, thereby fostering new opportunities for societal progress. Diversity is not merely a concept, but a practice—respecting each individual’s uniqueness, reflecting the richness of the world, and cultivating an inclusive society built on mutual support.
TISDC 2025 includes the following competition categories:
- Product Design
- Visual Design
