Merck is a multinational pharmaceutical company and one of the leaders in bioscience research and innovations (and the company that will soon roll out an anti-Covid pill throughout the world). This company has a unique career opportunity available to University of Waterloo students and offers great possibility for insights into the pharmaceutical industry. 

Merck is inviting University of Waterloo’s students to apply to join the next edition of the Innovation Cup that will be held in July 2022 at Merck KGaA HQ in Darmstadt, Germany. Merck will cover all the costs of transportation, lodging and accommodation to Germany (and back). 

In addition to the fully funded trip to Merck HQ in Germany, University of Waterloo students can enjoy many other benefits such as potential job offers from Merck, shared prizes of €20,000 for the winning team and €5,000 for the runner-up, networking opportunities with other great young minds from all over the world, options to implement their business ideas with Merck support, and more.
