DigiKey has announced its Back to School Giveaway, and it’s open for submissions from August 26th to October 24th, 2025. The winners' announcement is expected around the 15th of November. This is a giveaway that happens every year, and the company sees this as a way to help students bring their creative engineering ideas to life.
The entry eligibility is for you to be a student with a college or university email address. Entries are not restricted to just the English language; all languages are welcome. Students can visit DigiKey’s website to enter. Five students selected at random are to win a package that contains various electronic tools and equipment, such as an Aven Tools LED lamp, a Pokit Innovations all-in-one digital tool, a Weidmüller wire stripper, an Adafruit Ladyada's electronics toolkit, DigiKey swag, and more. On top of that, one lucky student will get the biggest prize, a Teledyne LeCroy Power Supply unit, in addition to the regular prize package.
Brooks Vigen, senior director of global strategic marketing, stated, “Each year, the Back to School Giveaway is a celebration of curiosity, creativity, and the bright future ahead”. DigiKey has expressed its excitement at the prospect of today’s students becoming innovators responsible for the technology of tomorrow.
