Case teaching at LUSEM
The case method is one of LUSEM’s present and future teaching and learning approaches.
For our students, faculty and partner organisations, the case method provides an opportunity to meet the interdisciplinary demands of real business and organisational situations. Given its ability to bridge the gap between theory and practice, LUSEM's case teaching method also plays a crucial role in our external engagement efforts.

Cases – for whom?
In principle, the case teaching and learning method can be used in any discipline when instructors want students to explore how what they have learned applies to real-world situations. In comparision to many international higher education settings, the method is already introduced at bachelor’s courses at LUSEM. A majority of our business courses at bachelor level are using cases and the use is also spread to other subjects such as economics, statistics, business law, informatics and economic history.
