In this course we explore what it means to be a Management Consultant, and will introduce students to consulting frameworks and methods; simulate consulting project activities and situations using business cases; and network students with practicing consulting professionals from a variety of global and local firms. Within the context of this course, consulting is viewed broadly and is inclusive of a number of practice areas including Strategy Consulting, IT Consulting, Marketing Consulting, Human Capital Consulting, Operational/Process Consulting, Organizational Consulting, and the very specialized area of Engineering Management Consulting. Course participants will be organized into consulting teams and will have the opportunity to identify and complete two simulated consulting engagements and participate in a Case Competition sponsored and judged by a tier one consulting firm.
