Project B helps bring students’ unique project ideas to life!

Given the current COVID-19 pandemic, your ideas for projects that would contribute to solving social problems or respond to the needs of students are needed now more than ever.

Project B supports long-term projects lasting anywhere from 6 months to 1 year from Fall Semester.

We are serious about providing you with the support needed to keep you excited and motivated!

Currently accepting Project B consultation requests! Start thinking about unique project ideas!

Project B (Event and Project Support System: Selected Project) will take your unique ideas and transform them into a rewarding project to tackle. Some changes have been made to Project B this year to make it easier for students to work within the Project B framework and its requirements. Take advantage of the unlimited possibilities you have as a university student and start thinking on your own and together with friends about an original project you want to see get off the ground. You will have the full support of the university along the way!
