GLOBAL HEALTH LEARNING OPPORTUNITY
Global Health Case Competition
Our Global Health Case Competition is a unique opportunity for students from multiple schools and disciplines to come together to develop innovative solutions for 21st century global health issues.
The Center for Global Health and Social Responsibility hosts the Global Health Case Competition, an interprofessional student learning competition for students to gain simulated professional experience while building a network of interdisciplinary students that will soon become their colleagues. Graduate, professional, and upper-level undergraduate students , and resident and postdoctoral fellows, from any college or school at the University of Minnesota are eligible to participate in the competition.

- Create a draft presentation by Wednesday and then host a mock presentation for experts on Thursday.
- Make your team's presentation cohesive and keep it simple.
