2021 Economics Case Competition: Guidelines and Rubrics

Overview
The Brattle Economics Case Competition presents teams an opportunity to go beyond their economics coursework and analyze a real-world issue related to the modern economy. Participants are given a list of topic questions, from which they choose one to formulate a coherent response and prepare a 8-10 minute presentation. Case presentations will be judged primarily on the strength of the argument, depth of research and delivery, as detailed in the rubrics.

Case Question
Impact of Disruptive Technology on the Economy: Emerging technologies create new sectors and benefit the consumer, but also have disruptive effects on the existing economic functioning. How do these pros and cons compare, and how should we manage potential tradeoffs?

Presentation Format Teams will be presenting to a panel of judges through Zoom. Teams are expected to share their screens for the presentation. A time warning will be given at the 9 minute mark through the chat, and teams will be asked to promptly wrap up at the end of 10 minutes to move to Q&A.

Submission Guidelines Teams are required to submit their presentation deck before the competition. Each team is to submit one pdf/ppt document to ucbe@uchicago.edu 24hr prior to the beginning of the competition, with the document title <SCHOOL NAME>_CASE.pdf e.g. UCHICAGO_CASE.pdf


Rubrics

All case presentations will be evaluated and scored using the following criteria and given a final score out of 100.
