Case Competition
The Engineering Business futures annual Case Competitions are a weekend-long business case competition designed exclusively for undergraduate engineering students. This event serves as a platform for young, talented minds to showcase their problem-solving abilities, critical thinking skills, and business acumen. The competition challenges our engineering students to analyze real-world engineering business problems and propose innovative and sustainable solutions while considering the financial, technical, and ethical aspects. With a focus on interdisciplinary collaboration and practical application, the Engineering Business Futures case competition aims to foster a spirit of innovation, entrepreneurship, and leadership among the next generation of engineers.
