Work with a team of MBA students from Providence College who will approach your business challenge like a real consulting engagement. While each class cohort is different, you can expect students to bring cross-functional skills in strategy, marketing, finance, data analytics and innovation to help you define a problem, explore solutions, and deliver actionable recommendations.

Each team manages their own project workflow: conducting research, engaging with stakeholders, and holding virtual check-ins throughout the semester, managing the project timeline, and delivering results. At the end of the project, you’ll receive clear deliverables, data-informed insights, and practical recommendations tailored to your goals.

From evaluating growth strategies to streamlining internal operations, these students are ready to dig in and offer fresh, research-backed perspectives, all while gaining real-world consulting experience under faculty guidance.

What students can do:

• Define and scope a business challenge
• Conduct customer discovery and competitor research
• Evaluate marketing or go-to-market strategies
• Identify opportunities for process improvement or resource optimization
• Analyze financial implications of strategic options
• Develop and present data-driven recommendations

What you can expect as a partner:

• A motivated student team approaching your business problem with a real consulting mindset
• A structured project kickoff and regular check-ins
• Clear deliverables and final recommendations you can use
• Opportunities to support student learning through feedback and collaboration

Outcomes and deliverables are negotiable based on the project, but student teams will provide:

• A formal client presentation summarizing key findings and next steps from three selected teams.
• Client analysis and recommendations from all student teams
• Any data analysis or supporting material used in developing the key findings, recommendations
• Unique perspectives on your business issue
