Attention all Mac Eng undergraduate students! 

Our M-Factor competition is back with big prizes on the line. Keep reading to learn how you can be part of this rewarding opportunity. 

Here’s how it works

The M-Factor is a multi-challenge competition designed to enhance your management skills through hands-on, experiential learning.

Over the course of three days, you’ll participate in three to four, team-based challenges that will push you to think critically, work collaboratively and demonstrate leadership — all while having a good time with your peers in Mac Eng. 

Here’s what you can win: 

The first-place winner will now take home an impressive cash prize of $3,000, with $2,000 for second place and $1,000 for third. 

Here’s what last year’s first-place winner, Gopal Uppalapti, had to say:  

“My experience in the M-Factor Competition was incredible, offering a unique blend of intellectual and practical challenges that encouraged creativity and thinking outside the box. Winning the prize money not only was a surreal moment but also helped fund my engineering and innovation trip to Uganda, making the competition one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. I highly encourage students to participate in the next competition.”

Are you up for the challenge?  

More details will be shared as they become available.  Stay tuned here.
