Case Course (8013926)
Current Issues
The Case course is only offered in the winter semester. Current information can be found here. The Case course will be held as an in-person class with the partner companies being on site. Attendance is mandatory for all five in-classroom sessions. If required, we will be able to switch to a virtual (remote) concept.
Content
The initial session will provide an overview of relevant methods for solving case studies. Furthermore, a substantial part of the course will focus on three specific case studies that will be presented and discussed in collaboration with real companies.
Throughout the course the case studies will be solved by the participants independently in a small group setting. The results will be presented in front of a joint jury comprising company and university representatives. An additional introduction into basic methods of solving and presenting case studies will be provided as well.
