Marking the end of the spring 2023 term is our termly competition roundup to celebrate the successes of Conrad School students.
Graduate students in the Master of Business, Entrepreneurship and Technology (MBET) program and undergraduate students in BET 300 or Enterprise Co-op (E Co-op) performed admirably in both on- and off-campus competitions.
We have winners from the annual MBET end-of-year tradeshow, plus wins at an international competition!

MBET 2023 end-of-year Tradeshow
Ending their year (or three years) on a high note, MBET students in the class of 2023 wrapped up the annual end-of-year Tradeshow in June.
With all the knowledge they accumulated through the year(s) and their innovative venture ideas, almost 25 student teams set up booths on the first floor of the Engineering 7 building.
