Are YOU Ready to Experience the Exciting World of Corporate Deal-making?

Duff & Phelps, a leading Valuation and Corporate Finance Advisory firm, is now accepting registrations for the Duff & Phelps YOUniversity Deal Challenge 2020. The 2020 program tests a broad range of skills including mergers and acquisitions advisory, transaction opinions, disputes and investigations and valuation advisory. By working with team members to solve problems presented in a complex fact pattern, you'll apply technical reasoning and critical thinking throughout key stages of the deal-making process. In the end, you'll have a unique perspective on how a deal comes together–from start to finish. YOU could also walk away with thousands of dollars in scholarships or cash rewards!

The YOUniversity Deal Challenge 2020 will be our most internationally-focused event yet. This year’s event will feature finals events in Chicago, Frankfurt, Hong Kong and Mumbai. We will also have an International Finals for the winners of all local regions, so YOU have a chance to compete internationally!
