MARGA for Students in summer term 2026
The Online Competition for students starts soon!

MARGA for Students starts the next round on April 27. 

The international online competition challenges students to manage a company as a team, make strategic decisions, and compete with teams from other universities. 

 “We simply don’t have time for a competition during the semester.” We hear this objection quite often and that is exactly why MARGA for Students is designed to fit smoothly into everyday student life.

✅ Full flexibility 

Participation is completely online. Students can work from anywhere and at times that fit their academic schedules. 

✅ Flexible scheduling with clear deadlines 

Each decision round has a fixed submission deadline. In between, teams decide themselves when and how intensively they work. 

✅ Teamwork without scheduling chaos 

All participants work in the online software. Team coordination can be organized flexibly. 

✅ Support instead of extra workload 

Learning videos, webinars, Q&A sessions, and tutoring accompany the entire program. All live sessions are recorded and can be watched at any time. 

✅ No technical setup required 

No installation, no preparation. Participation starts directly in the browser. 

✅ Perfect complement to academic studies 

The competition teaches practical management know-how, strengthens teamwork, and develops entrepreneurial thinking. Exactly the skills that often receive too little attention during university studies.

In our factsheet and short video, you can learn how the competition works and who it is designed for. You can find all further information here. 

We would be delighted to welcome students from your university to the next competition.
