Bronze: The following 6 goals must be achieved:

1. Team registration.
2. Complete Judging form.
3. Team Wiki.
4. Present a poster and a talk at the iGEM Jamboree.
5. The description of each project must clearly attribute work done by the students and distinguish it from work done by others, including host labs, advisors, instructors, sponsors, professional website designers, artists, and commercial services.
6. Document at least one new standard BioBrick Part or Device used in your project/central to your project and submit this part to the iGEM Registry

Silver: In addition to the Bronze Medal requirements, the following 4 goals must be achieved

1. Experimentally validate that at least one new BioBrick Part or Device of your own design and construction works as expected.
2. Document the characterization of this part in the “Main Page” section of that Part’s/Device’s Registry entry.

Gold: In addition to the Bronze and Silver Medal requirements, any one or more of the following:

1. Improve the function OR characterization of an existing BioBrick Part or Device (created by another team or your own institution in a previous year), enter this information in the Registry.

There are a lot of exciting Parts in the Registry, but many Parts have still not been characterized. Designing great measurement approaches for characterizing new parts or developing and implementing an efficient new method for characterizing thousands of parts are good examples.
