Emory Global Health Case Competition: Apply Now!
Hello BU graduate students!
Looking for innovative ways to engage in Global Health? Interested in working with a diverse team of students from the BU Schools of Public Health, Medicine, Engineering, Law, and Business?
The BU Team application for the 2016 International Emory Global Health Case Competition is now open!
This prestigious competition brings together interdisciplinary teams of students from universities around the world to learn about, develop, and recommend innovative solutions for a real world global health problem. It is an excellent opportunity to learn from and collaborate with colleagues across disciplines and develop skills to solve global health issues effectively.
We are looking for students interested in global health to join BU’s team at the 2016 International Emory Global Health Case Competition. We aim to field a strong team this year, as last year’s team brought home the Innovation Award for their strategy to reduce gun violence in Honduras.
The competition will take place at Emory University in Atlanta on April 8th-9th, 2016. Registration and travel costs will be covered by BU.
If you are interested, please complete the application by 11:59pm on Monday, October 26, 2015. The application form is available at http://www.jotform.us/form/52564082133147.
Strong candidates will be selected as finalists and invited to present a mini-case for a panel of judges in early December. You will be notified by November 11, 2015 if you have been selected as a finalist.
