CASE COMPETITON
The Schulich Consulting Club is excited to host a dynamic case competition virtually at UCC this year.
Competitors will have the opportunity to enhance their problem-solving and critical thinking skills as they navigate a complex case under 36 hours. The 36 hour pressure tank will challenge competitors to distill their visionary ideas and strategies into actionable solutions, and then present their solutions to top consultants in the industry.
Prior to presenting, the top teams will be given an invaluable experience to gain personal feedback on their solutions from top consultants. Thank you to McKinsey & Company who is our sponsor of the case competition and will be judging the final round.
STRUCTURE
Preliminary Application
36 Hour Competition
The preliminary round requires undergraduate students in teams of 4 to register and complete a short case. Upon registering for the case competition, teams will immediately be emailed the preliminary case to where they will have until 11:59 PM on Sunday, October 25, 2020 to submit their solution which should include a 1 page executive summary and up to 2 pages of appendices. The top 12 teams selected will be invited to compete in the 36 hour pressure tank and presentations.
