About the competition
The award winning Deloitte Difference University Challenge offers students from all years and all disciplines the opportunity to take part in a unique series of challenges on campus. This is a three stage, team based competition requiring teams to devise solutions to a number of case studies covering all aspects of our business.
This challenge will not only encourage you to use your creative thinking abilities, but will also help you better understand the diverse and rewarding career paths available at Deloitte!
The winning team will win €1,200 on campus and the huge opportunity to experience our global leadership centre, Deloitte University, in Texas!
Get a team together or come on your own and we will put you in a team. Check out our list of DDUC events below, stage information and how to enter. We look forward to meeting you. Best of Luck!
