Pitt’s Global Health Case Competition is an intensive and exciting dive into a real-world global health problem. The competition is designed to give undergraduate and graduate students professional experience in developing innovative 21st century solutions and strategies to address a real-world global health issue. We welcome all students from the University of Pittsburgh and students enrolled in institutions located within Northern and North Central Appalachian Regions.

Over a two-week timeframe, interdisciplinary teams of four to six graduate and undergraduate students will develop a plan to address a scenario in a holistic way based on information garnered during a series of presentation/workshop by experts along with a comprehensive library guide prepared specifically for the case study.

The top teams will receive cash prizes and support to register and, if accepted, to attend the Emory Morningside Global Health Case Competition. (Pitt cannot guarantee a slot in the Emory Case Competition.)

The case competition is sponsored by the School of Public Health’s Center for Global Health and Pitt’s Global Studies Center.

Deadline to apply: October 5, 2024
