MBA 5410 Global Consulting Practicum
Student teams serve as consultants to overseas organizations in a given country. The consulting projects involve evaluating the context of the country in which the organization is located, and devising solutions and recommendations based on the client’s project needs. Following on campus class sessions, and virtual meetings with the client, students travel together on a 10-day international study trip to meet with their clients and participate in both business and cultural visits. Through the planning and completion of the consulting projects, students strengthen their knowledge and insights related to the social, cultural, political, economic, technological, environmental and legal factors that impact achieving competitive advantage and doing business in international markets. A trip fee will be assessed. This course is available only to graduate students enrolled in the Barowsky School of Business.
