The Edwards MBA is pleased to present the opportunity to work with our experienced, intelligent and motivated students to achieve your business needs!

The Edwards School of Business is once again taking proposals for consulting projects to be completed by MBA students. Accepted projects will cost $2,500 depending on scope, plus expenses, which typically run between $500 and $1,000. Though you are not limited to these, typically projects fall within the following categories:

• feasibility studies and opportunity assessments (new ideas, new businesses, inventions)
• marketing research studies (new product/services, market opportunities, customer satisfaction)
• business plans (existing business, expansions, new businesses)
• organizational and human resources policy review

The program is aimed at both for-profit and not-for-profit organizations and projects can be local or international. The projects will be completed by Master of Business Administration (MBA) students at the Edwards School of Business. Each project will be completed by an individual MBA student and on rare occasion, should the scope of the project warrant it, up to 3 MBA students. The student(s) will work closely with you, the client and their MBA faculty supervisor.

This program provides the business and not-for-profit community with the opportunity to obtain quality research and management consulting at a reasonable cost, while also providing MBA students with valuable hands on experience in conducting applied consulting projects for business and service organizations.

Accepted projects normally begin in January 2012 for completion by August 2012. Developing the proposal, carrying out the work plan, analyzing the results, drawing conclusions, formulating recommendations, drafting the final consulting report, and liaising with the business client throughout each stage ensures students gain experience in project management and developing and cultivating a business relationship.
