Scoping Session

Aligning Visions and Building Networks

Following the initial selection, scoping sessions serve as a crucial bridge connecting educators and challenge sponsors. These meetings go beyond merely clarifying the challenge's objectives, scope, and expectations. They also offer a unique opportunity to tailor the challenge to fit the academic and learning objectives of the course it will be part of, ensuring a seamless integration that enhances both educational value and solution applicability.

Moreover, scoping sessions are an invaluable networking opportunity. They foster relationships between academia and industry, laying the groundwork for future collaborations. By promoting open communication from the start, these sessions guarantee that all involved parties—educators, students, and challenge sponsors—have a unified vision of what the project aims to achieve.

This mutual understanding and alignment are essential for a collaboration built on clarity, purpose, and shared goals, setting the stage for a successful partnership and impactful learning experiences.
