The Tournament In Management and Engineering Skills (TIMES) is the only European-wide business case competition of its kind, and has been organised for fifteen years. Today, it is considered a prestigious and highly acclaimed case study competition. Two qualification rounds are required to be selected for participation in the TIMES Final; before reaching this final stage, all the participants first take part in a local qualification round at their home university after which the winning teams are allowed to take part in one of the Semi-Finals, which are organised in six locations in different parts of Europe. The Final brings together the best teams to compete on three case studies. In between the intense competition days, participants are offered the opportunity of visiting sponsoring organisations as well as learning about the host country through visits and presentations.
TIMES is the flagship project of ESTIEM, that has established an extensive network covering 24 countries and 65 universities, reaching as many as 45 000 students. The tournament attracts every year around 250 top teams being challenged in their management and engineering skills and competing for the title of “IEM Students of the Year”.
