Board
Current board members, chairpersons, board alumni and case competitions
About us
The board currently consists of ten students from the University of Cologne along with two chairpersons representing the case.study.course. All board members remain in their position for the time of their studies. This means that we are constantly looking for new board members who are recruited from successful course participants. Many of our board alumni joined renowned consulting firms and keep in touch with us through their participation in our sessions.
