The Public Utility Research Center (PURC) at the Warrington College of Business invites University of Florida students to participate in the inaugural 2026 PURC Student Case Competition—a high-impact opportunity to tackle one of the most important challenges facing modern businesses: governing artificial intelligence in critical infrastructure.

This is not a theoretical exercise. You will work on a realistic case involving a major electric utility navigating how to deploy AI while protecting data, ensuring security and meeting regulatory demands. From smart grid analytics to cybersecurity and real-time system optimization, the decisions you make mirror those being faced by executives, regulators and policymakers today.

Join the competition

Designed for forward-thinking graduate and undergraduate students, the competition bridges academic learning with practical decision-making and problem solution—where technology, policy and business strategy collide.
