The Case Competition format meets students' needs and demands for STEM-focused opportunities to apply their subject-matter expertise and skills. In teams of 3-4 members, students develop a solution to a case, for example, plastic pollution (2022) or food waste (2023).
The Case Competition gives students the chance to engage with industry and academics. Students pitch their solutions to multi-disciplinary internal and external judges. After the first round, select teams move on to Heats and Finals, for a chance to win exclusive sustainable prizes and opportunities that enhance students’ career development (e.g., meeting with industry partners, or recruitment workshops).
The Case Competition is run in collaboration with the Science Students’ Society. Past partners of the Science Case Competition include:
