  • The students recruited for our Interchange teams come faculty-recommended and are hand-selected based on the required disciplines needed to successfully complete the work.
  • All project teams are also supported by expert faculty. 

What Sponsors Can Expect

  • Custom duration, anywhere from an 8-week sprint up to 16 weeks or longer depending on sponsorship funding and project complexity. 
  • Groups of 4-6 undergraduate, graduate, or mixed student teams addressing projects. Can include multiple disciplines as necessary. 
  • Faculty supervision by at least one ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ expert faculty member. 
  • Final deliverables and presentations to senior leadership as desired.
