The UAB Health Administration Case Competition provides graduate students from CAHME-accredited programs an opportunity to put what they have learned into practice with a real-life, real-time case. It is designed to be a capstone experience for graduate students across the United States and Canada.

Graduate student teams travel to Birmingham, Alabama every year to present on their recommendations before a national panel of judges. The first, second, and third place teams receive cash awards at the final ceremony University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (pictured above) won the 19th UAB Health Administration Case Competition. Finishing second was Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) and placing third was University of Minnesota.

Join us in Birmingham for the 20th UAB Health Administration Case Competition, which is scheduled for February 2026 (dates to be determined). Detailed information and schedule will be sent to CAHME Program Directors in October.
