Frequently Asked Questions
Our university is not listed. Can our students take part in NPEA 2027?
Yes. Any university or polytechnic in Indonesia can bring NPEA to its students. Use the form on this page or email hello@hovarlay.com, and we will explain how your institution can take part.
What does taking part involve for our institution?
The department shares the brief with relevant students and supports those who enter. HOVARLAY provides the platform, the student brief and online coaching through the entry period.
Is there any cost?
No. There is no fee for the institution and no fee for students to enter. HOVARLAY gives every student free access to the platform.
Do students receive a certificate?
The 20 finalists receive a certificate. Every student who enters finishes with a live augmented reality experience they can show in their portfolio.
How do we start?
Use the form on this page, or email hello@hovarlay.com. Tell us your programme and about how many students may enter. HOVARLAY sends everything the institution needs, and we answer university enquiries within two working days.
Can we publish this on our own website and social channels?
Yes. Please do. Write about your own students, use the images on this page with credit to HOVARLAY, and link to this page and to the finalists page. For higher-resolution images or a short write-up about your students, email hello@hovarlay.com.
Can you send us a write-up about our own students?
Yes. Email hello@hovarlay.com with the institution’s name and HOVARLAY will send a short piece about your own students, with higher-resolution images to publish.
Where can I see our students' work?
Every NPEA 2026 finalist is on the finalists page, with their packaging design, the place that inspired it and a video of the AR experience they built.
Does HOVARLAY work with universities outside the awards?
Yes. HOVARLAY runs campus workshops, semester programmes and academic partnerships that put augmented reality into your existing curriculum, with training for lecturers. See programmes for institutions.
