BSP Essay Prompt:
BSP partners with optiMize for the Social Innovation Challenge (BSP + optiMize). Participants will meet weekly in CSP 121 to learn to develop a project that creates a positive impact on the world. You have the opportunity to pitch your idea individually or in small groups for a chance to earn funding to support the growth of your project through a 2027 summer fellowship. You do not need to have a project idea in mind to participate in BSP; you will receive support and guidance in developing one.
Please share 1-3 societal challenges you would like to explore as a member of Bridge Scholars Plus through optiMize. Explain why these areas are important to you. There are no right or wrong answers. Examples might include healthcare, mental health, education, racial equity, housing insecurity, civic engagement, environmental justice, etc. (150 to 300 recommended).
