Fall 2023 SCMA at ASU Case Competition
Dates: Thursday, October 19th to Saturday, October 21st
The annual undergraduate supply chain & operations case competition allows Arizona State University undergraduate students from various disciplines and grade levels to practically apply business principles/skills and develop innovative solutions for a company-provided case that is based on real operational and supply chain challenges.
Students may compete individually or form teams of 4. Each competitor will receive the case materials on Thursday, October 19th and will have until the end of Friday, October 20th, to submit their presentation. On Saturday, October 21st, teams will present their solutions to a panel of judges. Based on the judges’ scoring, the top 3 teams will then have the opportunity to present in a final round that Saturday before the closing ceremony.
Throughout the competition, students will have the chance to hear from corporate speakers and network with company representatives.
