    Colleagues,

    I am part of the SMS Strategy Teaching Initiative Task Force and we will
    be presenting research and sessions on current and innovative teaching
    methodologies at the SMS conference in Cologne, Germany in October. I am
    seeking interesting examples of business schools that have incorporated
    case competitions and field studies/consulting projects into mandatory
    curriculum – not just as an extracurricular activity. Over the next few
    weeks, I will be summarizing such examples to share at the SMS conference
    and will also post the results on the BPS List. Here is the link if you
    would like additional information about the SMS Task Force -
