Requirements

Starting in September, a group of student-consultants will spend approximately 100 working hours providing your organization with a thorough analysis of opportunities and threats in your organizations environment. They will also present an overview of strategic alternatives/recommendations to ensure your organization maintains competitive edge.

Project examples could include, but are not limited to:

  • Developing a marketing strategy (international and domestic)
  • General strategy recommendations
  • Assisting a company launch a new product
  • New market entry strategy
