3rd Annual Big 12 MBA Case Competition

MBA programs from the universities in the Big 12 Athletic Conference compete annually in a case competition. This year, the two-day competition was hosted by Baylor. Upon arrival, the teams of four MBA students were given a case written specifically for the competition. The students had less than 24 hours to analyze the situation, research the possibilities, propose ideas, and prepare a presentation. The company used for the case competition was DMX. www.dmx.com
