These consultancy-like project are designed to provide students with an opportunity to apply business concepts, principles and theories that they have acquired throughout their program to in a real-world setting with a partnering client. Students work in teams with a client to identify and scope a strategic issue, opportunity, challenge, or problem and develop solutions that will contribute to the success of the organization.  

Clients and projects are developed and scoped at a high level to determine their fit with the student groups and appropriate timeline for participation (July/August). Organizations are not limited and are able to submit proposals in strategy, sales, marketing, data analysis and operational planning.  

Students may be eligible to apply for a research project elective credit by submitting an application to the academic director. Given that the projects are outside or students regular schedule curriculum and an additional engagement, this would require organizations to contribute x dollars in order to participate in the project.  

Students are to have a scope of work, business brief, mid-point check in, and final presentation to clients
