BUS 3650 Advanced Case Analysis
Case study is a staple of engaged management education. In addition to exposing students to real-world scenarios, it engages them in research: gathering information, analyzing that information, developing a recommendation, and communicating that recommendation persuasively. Unique to case studies, however, is the purpose to which the research, analysis, and communication are put: to solve a complex business problem or to provide advice to a firm as it looks into new opportunities.
Case studies have also become the basis for case competitions hosted by business schools and firms throughout the world. This course engages students in the deep analysis of complex business cases to help them think like consultants and to prepare those interested to participate successfully in case competitions.
