Social Sciences - Education / Pedagogy
Swedish term or phrase: företagsspel
This is a part of a university educational program.

I would say "role playing," but in the field of business education I know they use "case studies." So I am wondering if there is a specific term used in Business Schools for such that is referred to in Swedish as företagsspel.

Notes to answerer
Asker: I agree with your answer, that "business game(s)" is the translation; however I personally don't think this is clear enough (so am not comfortable with its usage). (and anyway, though you should get points for this, let's share them.)
