CROSS-COLLEGE INNOVATION CHALLENGE
The Cross-College Innovation Challenge (CCIC) is a program that aims to leverage cross-college collaboration and support faculty engagement to develop 鈥渢he next big thing鈥� that meets a pressing societal need. The ideal outcomes of the program will be projects, methods and prototypes that can be the topic of intellectual property protection and, ultimately, translated into commercializable developments.
Future program announcements will be posted here and announced via Campus Currents.
