Case study directions

Students will be assigned a Harvard Case study as their term project. Emphasis will be placed on the main problem being solved, key issues, and/or root causes. Students will be tasked with applying the appropriate analytical tools to case data, both quantitative and qualitative. For some cases, root cause analysis will be used to examine symptoms/key issues to derive alternative solutions mindful of the cause(s). Alternatives will then be critically examined leading to a final solution set. For other cases as in this term’s case, the appropriate analytical tools will be used to choose among a set of currently existing alternatives. Finally, some cases will require a combination of both analytical approaches.

Note: Students will be provided a “case coach” and grading rubric to assist in building case study presentations/written analyses. Quality cases are usually in between 4 to 6 pages written, not including visuals such as tables, figures, and graphs. Since cases are self-contained, there is no need for students to use additional research besides information contained in classroom materials. If you do cite the text, case, class materials, etc., please give credit where credit is due by using in-text citations. In this case, you will also have to include a reference page. Please use APA format.
