What is the EDC?
The Entrepreneur Design Contest is intended to:
- Encourage entrepreneurship in the college of engineering: By providing incentives and guidance, SAGE encourages graduate and undergraduate students to explore entrepreneurship and convert the technology they study and ideas they develop to potential business opportunities.
- Build ties between the College of Engineering and the School of Management: The competition is designed to encourage collaboration between the students from both the College of Engineering and the School of Management. By forming mixed teams with students from each department, the contestants get an exposure to a wide range of technical and management issues that surround starting a small business.
- Bring industry recognition to the College of Engineering: Successful entrepreneurship by students from the College of Engineering adds to Boston University's presence and recognition in industry. Such recognition serves to reinforce and attract additional relationships with businesses as well as potential recruiters.
