Students win global final
Four Business School students have beaten around 200 teams to win the final of the Universities Business Challenge Worldwide.
Global case competitions
As a current student, you have the opportunity to take part in global business case competitions during your time at university.
Global business case competitions can be a great way to develop key business skills, gain international experience and significantly enhance your CV. Many business case competitions are sponsored by large multi-national corporations who source a high percentage of their future graduate employees from them.
Competing brings an excellent chance to prove yourself to prospective employers and networking through alternative channels, such as business competitions, is another way into a company and into employment.
Team coach
Teams who enter case competitions must consider nominating a team coach and can approach academic staff from the start of each semester. Teams should also notify their mobility coordinator about their participation in a global case competition.
