Week two of the programme will challenge you to solve a real-world issue. Drawing on your entrepreneurial skills, you will work with students from other subject areas to share expertise, collaborate and to evolve an idea to answer the challenge question.  This year, you and your group can choose to focus on Health and Wellbeing or Climate Change. 

As a team, you will present your solution to a panel of judges and fellow Global Summer School students. This challenge is your opportunity to show originality and to build the skills you will need at university including, teamwork, presentation and communication skills.
