IB High School Competition 2023

The Integrated Business Program at the University of Central Florida hosted the  Annual Integrated Business Case Challenge for High School Students on Friday, February 24th, at the College of Business on the UCF campus.

High school students from Central Florida participated in a day-long competition working on teamwork, presentation, and goal-setting skills with support from current UCF Integrated Business faculty and students. Whether students intend to major in business or explore other career options, they can practice some valuable skills while collaborating with a team to propose a solution to our case challenge.

High school teachers participated in an interactive professional development session with our Integrated Business faculty while the students worked on the competition.

High school groups interested in participating in future years can contact  UCF Instructor Shelley Maccini at shelley.maccini@ucf.edu for more information.  Registration for 2024 will open in Fall 2023.
