MBA Consulting Projects
MBA consulting projects have been a valuable resource for Long Island Business for over 20 years. A team of MBA graduate students, under faculty supervision, focus on a problem that has been identified in the fabric of your business.
The students meet with you and work over the course of a semester to analyze and create working solutions. It is real-world experience for them — they must keep in constant communication with you, the client — and the results of their project work would be of tangible benefit.
Please fill out this google form if you are interested to participate for the incoming semester. Please contact our faculty, Richard Chan and Ed Fabian, if you have additional questions.
