Students compete to build and market products.
The V. Dale Cozad Business Plan Competition , promoting collaboration between engineering and business students, kicked off Aug. 30 at the Beckman Institute. Engineering students have to create an invention or concept that can be brought to the market through a plan formulated by business students. Not every applicant needs to be a student in either college. Michael Mamonn, senior in LAS, developed a Web page with a group of friends. Unlike other more hesitant participants, he shared his motives and concept.
