The Graduating Case Competition is a multi-disciplinary case competition that simulates corporate activity for students, thus serving as a unique recruitment tool.

Over the course of 3 days, students in their final year of undergraduate studies participate in a series of events that begins with a crash course in the art of cracking business cases. This is followed by a formal opening ceremony, which allows recruiters to acquaint themselves with the participants on a personal level.

The competition proper is comprised of a 3-hour case crack, followed by a 30-minute presentation in 1 of 4 fields: Finance, Marketing, Information Systems and International Business/Strategy. During this time, teams of 4 students must effectively utilize academic and interpersonal skills to produce creative solutions addressing issues in their respective disciplines. Outstanding teams are recognized at the awards ceremonies, capping a productive weekend.
