Join CSVC and the Smith Investment Fund for the inaugural Business Impact Challenge Series!
The CSVC Equity Research & Valuation Challenge is a brand new 14-day, student-run competition designed to simulate a real equity research assignment. Undergraduate teams act as analyst groups evaluating a publicly traded company, building a defensible valuation, and ultimately presenting a Buy/Hold/Sell recommendation to a panel of professionals.
Undergraduate students of all majors and years are encouraged to participate. Apply by Wednesday, March 11th at go.umd.edu/BICS-2026. Final Presentations will take place on Friday, April 10th from 10:00AM - 1:00PM.
