More Information & Registration

The Student Innovation Challenge is an opportunity for undergraduate or graduate students from diverse backgrounds to collaborate on developing innovative solutions to challenges faced by our Grenadian partners. The challenge will be distributed a week prior to the event date for students to begin working on their proposed solution. Students from any school or college are welcome to participate in the challenge and staff, faculty or students who are not participating are welcome to view the challenge in person or remotely. A few things to note: Teams will be randomly assigned to be interdisciplinary. The winning team for this group challenge will have the opportunity to represent the University of Michigan at a regional Global Health Case Competition hosted by the University of Notre Dame in partnership with Northwestern University and the University of Michigan School of Public Health. Select travel expenses will be covered.
