Case Competitions
Case Competitions (for BSc IB and BSc IBE students only )
The Maastricht University School of Business and Economics (SBE) supports the active participation of its students in case competitions. These competitions highlight strategic challenges and managerial dilemmas encountered by today’s business leaders. Student teams from top business schools around the world are required to solve a real business problems and to formulate solutions within a short period of time. Participants develop and strengthen their skills critical to their careers.
Other competitions
The School also sends students from other programmes to competitions.
Last year, the SBE Econometrics place fourth in the Econometric Game in Amsterdam, following the University of Cambridge (1st), Carlos III in Madrid (2nd) and Copenhagen (3rd). Professor Dr. Jean-Pierre Urbain, head of the department of Quantitative Economics, said, “Not only did we do very well among the international universities, but this is also the third time we wind up the best Dutch team. This is no coincidence: we belong among the best Econometrics school in Europe.” Read more...
