Renowned for over 80 years of Case Teaching

Do you want to experience a real case class? Come and join us in Shanghai for a lively class discussion with Professor Rick Robertson from Ivey Business School.

Ivey Business School, University of Western Ontario, is famous for its case methodology and we offer the Chinese prospective MBA applicants a unique opportunity to experience an Ivey case class.

To take full advantage of this opportunity, you should be fluent in English, and able to express your opinions in public in a structured way. You should also have 2 years or more solid work experience – business acumen has been proven to be critical in case discussions.

Your commitment is also important – we will request you to spend 2-3 hours before the mock class to read the case, conduct the necessary analysis and make the management decision, so that you could effectively participate in the class discussion. (The professor might cold call on those who are not active in class contribution!)

Due to limited seats for this unique format, we have to make it a by-invitation event. To secure your spot, please register immediately. Upon your registration we will send you an invitation letter with the case document attached.

We look forward to meeting you on September 1^st.
