COSIMA – Competition for Students
Join the COSIMA Competition 2026 – the starting signal has been given!
How does COSIMA work?
As a requirement for the COSIMA competition, we are asking you to find new applications for sensors and microsystems. In particular, we are looking for applications that improve and facilitate the interaction between humans and technology in various areas of daily life. COSIMA stands for “Competition of Students in Microsystems Applications”.
Your creativity and team spirit are in demand
Microsystems usually consist of one or more sensors, actuators and an electronic control unit.
Find new applications for microsystems and present a functional prototype as a project result on the day of the competition!
There is no specific task required for COSIMA - this is where COSIMA differs from other competitions.
We appeal to all inventive, creative students: Be pioneers, find a technical task that you realize yourself and present in the competition!
Are you interested in taking part?
The starting signal for the COSIMA 2026 Competition has been given. We look forward to receiving your applications!
