Texas A&M University-Mays Business School and Humana Announce Winners of Sixth Annual Healthcare Analytics Case Competition - Seite 2

“The quality of the analytics these students are delivering has improved each year,” said Scott Bagley, PhD, Vice President of HQRI Technology and Analytics at Humana. Bagley, a Texas A&M alumnus, who has served as a Case Competition Finalist Judge for the past five years, added, “Serving as a judge for this competition is my favorite professional opportunity, an exciting partnership that fosters ingenuity and creativity, especially as the real world problems provided have become more challenging to match America’s need to advance and evolve healthcare in this country.”

“Business schools educate students to solve real-world problems,” said Jerry Strawser, Associate Dean for Graduate Programs at Mays Business School. “This case study illustrates how students can apply skills they learn in the classroom to make a difference in the world by improving the health and lives of patients and their families.”

The sixth annual competition was held virtually and was open to all accredited educational institutions based in the United States. Full-time and part-time master’s students from accredited Master of Science, Master of Arts, Master of Information Systems, Master of Public Health, Master of Business Administration programs or other similar master’s programs in business, healthcare or analytics, were eligible to enter.

The teams were judged based on the following criteria:

• Quantitative analysis identifying key business insights
• Professionalism, data visualization, and presentation skills
• Ability to provide meaningful implications and recommendations based on results/insights
