The week of competition will conclude with final student presentations and a jury decision the following Monday, Sept. 30, from 2 to 5 p.m. in the Gluck Equine Research Center Auditorium.

For this year’s competition, senior undergraduate students from the College of Engineering will partner with various levels of landscape architecture students in vertically mixed teams.
