What is The BFGoodrich Collegiate Inventors Program (BFG-CIP)?
The BFGoodrich Collegiate Inventors Program (BFG-CIP) is a national competition that recognizes and rewards outstanding innovations, discoveries and research by college and university students and faculty. The program was introduced in May 1990. The BFGoodrich Collegiate Inventors Program is designed to encourage students active in science, engineering, mathematics, technology and creative invention while stimulating their problem-solving abilities. This challenge also recognizes the working relationship between a student and his or her advisor who are involved in projects leading to inventions that can be patented.
