The Open Case Project

The open-source case study project at Huron University reimagines business education by bringing real-world business challenges into the classroom. Faculty and student researchers partner with local businesses to create teaching cases that reflect today’s business landscape led by a diverse array of entrepreneurs. Through these cases, students can analyze and debate strategies to make informed decisions alongside their peers, helping students develop communication and problem-solving skills firsthand.
