If you're a U-M graduate student with a breakthrough idea for helping planet earth to be a more sustainable place, then you’re invited to enter the Dow Sustainability Innovation Student Challenge.
Concepts—which should be interdisciplinary in nature—can be related to chemistry, energy conservation, climate change, product safety, public policy, or other critical areas.
Students (or student teams) with the top three entries will each be awarded $10,000, courtesty of the Dow Chemical Company. Three “honorable mentions” will also each receive a $1,000 prize.
The Dow Challenge is exclusively for graduate students at the University of Michigan. Individual and team submissions will be accepted. Click here for RFP details.
The entry deadline is March 5, 2011, so be sure to submit your idea today!
