Bama Means Business

MBA Case Team

Setting the Standard

Manderson MBA Case Team is a select group of highly-motivated MBA students driven to pursue education outside of the classroom. Team members compete, and consistently place, in case competitions against elite business schools, where they deliver consulting-style recommendations to real-world business problems. Throughout the year, Case Team meets weekly, providing an opportunity for team members from diverse educational backgrounds to refine and grow problem-solving and communication skills. Team members graduate with professional project execution experience, proven strategic decision-making and collaboration skills, and a network of high-achieving teammates that often become lifelong friends.
