Invitation to Participate in
the Imagine RIT Global Competition
January 9, 2022
RIT has always
been a synonym for creativity, innovation, tech and the future; after all, the
university signature event is the popular Imagine RIT festival that celebrates those very traits. The festival brings RIT closer to its local
community as masses from Rochester area come to the campus each spring to
witness creative and innovative work and ideas of RIT students, faculty and
staff. This is a whole day event that takes place each spring semester at the main
campus, and this year it will take place on April 29, 2023. To better
understand what the event is about, please watch the video.
Even though the
work of global campuses' Tigers has been represented at the festival in the
previous years, this year RIT is organizing a special competition for RIT global
campuses' students, and the best of the best will showcase their work at the premier
location at Imagine RIT!!
So, we invite all
RIT Croatia students to apply! Why? Because you will get to showcase your ideas
at the main campus in the US, and meet amazing people along the way!
