The First Annual Fowler Business Concept Challenge
The Schulze School of Entrepreneurship at the University of St. Thomas Opus College of Business is pleased to announce the first annual Fowler Business Concept Challenge, with a top prize of a $10,000 scholarship.
Focused on energizing the entrepreneurial spirit of UST students across campuses and colleges, the competition will challenge students to develop a business concept that has the potential to become a viable, high-growth business. The teams that submit the winning business competition in each of two divisions (undergraduate and graduate) will receive $10,000 scholarships from the University of St. Thomas.
The Fowler Business Concept Competition will be held during the month of October 2009. It is open to all UST students registered for the fall 2009 semester, including undergraduate, graduate and doctoral students.
Students will compete in teams of at least two but no more than five persons. Teams will register in either the Undergraduate or Graduate Division. Undergraduate division teams must comprise all undergraduate students. Teams registering in the Graduate Division must have at least one currently registered UST graduate student (master’s or doctoral level) on the team. Other team members may be currently registered UST undergraduate students.
Students interested in competing should plan to attend an information session during the month of September 2009. Learn more about the rules and procedures and see a complete list of dates, times and locations at www.stthomas.edu/business/schulzeschool/fowlerchallenge
