Competition · Online
The Gold CREST Award recognises a student-led STEM project of around 70 hours, assessed by a CREST assessor, with a nationally recognised British Science Association award. Projects can be submitted year-round through the CREST application platform.
Students plan and direct their own project, using one of the free resource prompts or their own idea, and show the scientific method or engineering design process. They must meet at least 11 of the 15 Gold CREST criteria. CREST Awards are recognised by universities and employers and can support UCAS applications.
