About Competition
The Adobe Digital Edge Awards 2022 recently opened for entries, celebrate game-changing student projects that use Creative Cloudto take uni work to the next level.
Whatever you’re studying, digital skills can make you and your coursework stand out, and those skills are what can help you land your dream grad job. Share a piece of uni work that showcases your digital literacy.
Digital literacycan be applied to anything you do. It’s the power to use digital tools to solve problems, create innovative projects, and enhance communications to prepare for the evolving workplace. These are skills every new graduate needs to demonstrate to prospective employers. This year, the Digital Edge Awards have two briefs– and two sets of prize.
Entries must either be in response to a university assignment set in the academic year 2021/22, or a reimagining of an assignment where you think the Creative Cloud apps will take it to the next level.
A team of up to six students can enter together. The work must be created primarily (50% or more) with Adobe tools found within Adobe Creative Cloud.
Many universities provide free access to Creative Cloud for students. If not, students with a valid student email address can save 65% on Creative Cloud. Plus, you can also get a free 7-day trial to help you create your submission.
Your hard work will be judged by a professional panel of industry and Adobe experts. Submissions will be judged on your ability to convey complex information to others in an easy-to-follow format. You should also make your work as engaging as possible for your audience.

How it works.
This year, the Digital Edge Awards have two briefs – and two sets of prizes! We’re excited to see how every student uses Creative Cloud in their uni work. It doesn’t matter what course you’re studying!
Don’t worry if you’ve never used Creative Cloud before, the Digital Edge Awards are open to students from all backgrounds. To keep things fair, those studying art, design, and other creative courses – who are likely to be more familiar with these digital tools – will work to a different brief than those who are studying subjects less likely to work with Creative Cloud. This way, you’ll only be judged against those with a similar skillset.
Select your subject area to reveal your brief, and get going!
