WMGIC III is a case competition, which recruits teams of students from all majors to pitch proposals concerning relevant global challenges scheduled for 3/29 and 3/30. Register here: bit.ly/WMGICIII.  Cash prizes of at least $850 will be awarded!

The Global Innovation Challenge is a hack-a-thon style international development case competition aimed at encouraging interdisciplinary collaboration to create innovative solutions to current global issues. Competing for a cash prize and possible research opportunities, teams will generate solutions within one of three streams that will act as a framework for the case: technology, social entrepreneurship, and governance. Teams, consisting of 3-5 students, will have the opportunity throughout the competition to engage with mentors from the international development community.
