RICHARD CHARLES LEE BIG IDEAS COMPETITION
We’re looking for bright, motivated undergraduate and graduate students in the Faculty of Arts and Science with ideas for impactful projects with a focus on Asia. This is a chance to think outside the box, to apply your classroom learning to the real world in a meaningful way. Students will train to win through a series of expert-led workshops. In April, individuals and teams will pitch their ideas before a jury of faculty members and industry experts, competing for the prize to fund their projects.
