ABOUT US

Students! Participate in a case competition and you will:

  • Engage in critical thinking to solve a problem with a team

We offer workshops, training, and tools

The Center for Business Communication offers experiences both inside and out of the classroom. Our program portfolio includes competitions, workshops, coaching and digital tools. You can join the case community and weave in and out as your schedule allows. We help students start and move through case experiences.
