Millions of our customers depend on the Internet everyday to work, play, and stay connected with friends, family, and the world. At Frontier Communications, we work every day to make sure our service is fast and always on.

This year, Frontier has two challenges available. One data science challenge and one materials challenge.

Each team member (max 4 members) from the top three teams will receive prizes according to the following:

• 1st Place - $200 Amazon gift card
• 2nd Place - $100 Amazon gift card
• 3rd Place - $50 Amazon gift card

At Frontier, our customers depend on us to deliver blazing-fast, reliable internet. We’re looking for ways to solve connectivity problems before our customers even know they have them.

Your challenge is to help us predict when a customer may be having a bad experience and call us or need us to visit them for a support call.

This will include using AI and applying data from our network, along with any other data you think is valuable.

Frontier is committed to sustainability in our technology. That means our equipment must work in all kinds of environments and situations.

Your challenge is to help us design an enclosure that keeps our equipment cool during hot Texas summers.

The best design will be inexpensive, self-powered (or not powered at all!), and have few moving parts. Your design can be built with real materials or in the CAD software of your choosing.
