2019 CALL FOR CASE STUDIES AND ABSTRACTS
Southeast Case Research Association

February 21-23, 2019
The 2019 program organizers of the Southeast Case Research Association (SECRA) invite experienced, new, and student case writers to submit original, unpublished cases to be presented at the 27th Annual Meeting. Case studies in the early stages of development may be submitted without an instructor’s manual. Field-researched cases are especially encouraged.
Submission Deadline: Monday, November 12, 2018
(Cases under development and abstract submissions accepted until January 14, 2019)
SECRA serves as a channel for the development and publication of case studies in all areas of business, education, social issues, technology, healthcare, and other disciplines. Case studies with an instructor’s manual, cases without an instructor’s manual, cases under development, and abstracts will be considered. All cases presented at the 27th Annual Conference will qualify for review and potential publication in the Southeast Case Research Journal.
As a seasoned case study research and development organization, SECRA strongly values and encourages the submission of student-authored cases along with student participation in the conference. During each SECRA conference, students and newcomers to case writing have the opportunity to present their cases for appraisal by experienced case writers. Attendees can hone their skills before submitting a full case at a future meeting.
