Design Competition 2025

If you’re aged 14-17 and currently attend high school, enter our creative competition – a chance for your design to be printed on our merchandise in 2026!

What’s the challenge?

We need a design that captures the spirit of BCUIC and/or life in Birmingham. The design could be a hand-drawn illustration, a digital graphic, or a sculpture. Whatever form it takes, it should reflect one or more of the following themes:

  • BCUIC’s international diversity
  • BCUIC’s city-centre location
  • Birmingham as a major UK city
  • Birmingham’s vibrant culture

The winning design will be printed on official BCUIC merchandise (bags, mugs, tshirts) in 2026 and distributed around the world!
