The Wege Prize 2020 team invites Syracuse University students to apply to the wegeprize.org, and help solve wicked problems.  The Wege Prize believes in helping teams form a strong base of knowledge from which to develop their original ideas, and so they have created interactive databases and real-world case studies to design guides and expert presentations, to help help develop applicant teams for Wege Prize 2020.  Teams must apply for Wege Prize 2020 by no later than November 10, 2019 to be eligible to compete!
