A team of four Missouri S&T students won the Campus Impact Challenge with GoldMine, a concept for a university platform to connect students with peers, alumni, faculty and sponsors for engineering and personal projects. The competition was held Saturday, Sept. 12.
The winning team included Ella Stegner, a sophomore in electrical engineering; Noah Johnson, a senior in mechanical engineering; Daniel Waters, a first-year student in aerospace engineering; and Thomas Howe, a sophomore in computer engineering and computer science. Each student received a $200 scholarship.
Hosted by Kummer Student Programs, the challenge asks student teams to identify a campus or community issue and propose solutions within 24 hours. The team’s proposal is being further developed in partnership with the university.
