Two separate jurors assess each report blindly, each providing marks based on a given marking criteria.

We estimate the commitment to be around two hours of your time per report, across two months.<\/p>\n    <p>The Entente Cordiale University Challenge is an opportunity for experts in the field to help identify the most meritorious research produced by students in the country, and to connect with other experts during our Entente Cordiale Days and associated events.
