    Dear Colleagues

    I am looking to access case studies for a Final Year undergraduate strategy course I am conducting.

    Any idea where I might be able to locate some good case studies?

    The following case studies were used in previous years for this course:

    - Starbucks
    - Apple
    - Southwest Airlines

    Many thanks

    Dear Neela,

    Give these links to free cases a try.

    (you need to register as educator, but then you get full access and rights to these free cases)

    Hope they help.

    Cheers,
    Nick

    Harvard & Darden are too very obvious places for cases.  Two other venues you might want to look: 

    The Case Journal  (Case Associations' journal) and
    The Case Research Journal (NACRA's journal). 

    Both have a number strategy cases published in the past year or two that you might want to consider. 

    Hope this helps.

    The Richard Ivey School of Business publishing house (https://www.iveycases.com/?aspxerrorpath=/Cases/Pages/home.aspx) is a great place for cases as well. I would email Judy Irvine (jirvine@ivey.ca) for help with selecting a case.
