The University of Toronto Engineering Kompetitons (UTEK) will be in its 8th year in 2010, and acts as a qualifier for the Ontario Engineering Competition. UTEK is hosted by the Engineering Society, although the Alumni Office offers large support for it, since UTEK is an event that not only showcases UofT’s engineering talent, it also engages past alumni to connect with students via judging
 
==Competition Categories==
UTEK Competitors can compete in one of six categories: Junior Design, Senior Design, Consulting Engineering, Innovative Design, Engineering Communications, and Parliamentary Debate.
 
===Judging===
The judging panel usually consists of seven judges - six male engineering students (which must include exactly one F!rosh) and the reigning Godiva's Crown (who is the head judge). The male judges are generally chosen by the Godiva's Crown or organizers of the event, and is decided by their (humourous) responses to a series of questions.
 
Following each act, the judges generally write their comments on paper to be read out by the MC of the night. These comments are humorous in nature, and are not meant to factor into the official judging of the act. The judges also have opportunities to ask questions to the contestants after their act.
 
The judges, although they are chosen impartially, have been known to enjoy tasty treats and refreshing BEvERages to aid in their selection of the winning contestant. Many contestants choose to make their 'bribery' in a public fashion during their act, with judges favourably receiving creative and personalized gifts.
 
The judges congregate in a secret location following the last act, and vote for the next Godiva's Crown. Following the decision, the reigning Godiva's Crown announces awards for each of the contestants, and the winner of the title. The new Godiva's Crown is then presented with the Godiva's Crown hardhat, the Godiva sashes, a ceremonial horse, and the flags for the Blue & Gold Bed Races.
