PPCC: Public Policy Case Competition

Started in 2008, the annual Public Policy Case Competition challenges teams of students to tackle a real-world public policy challenge. The competition is judged by a panel of leaders in management and development consulting and non-profit organizations.

The competition is a 1 day event with 3 simultaneous tracks: selected students compete in either the US Public Policy, International Development or Social Innovation track.

• A total of 45 students are selected to compete (15 in each track; 5 teams per track)
• Teams are pre-assigned to ensure diversity of experience, expertise, and strengths
• Teams have just 5 hours to prepare their response before presenting to the panel of judges
