Why join the Consulting CoP?
The Consulting Community of Practice (CoP) equips students with the tools, preparation and network connections needed for industry success by providing industry-specific, career-related experience and mentoring. The Consulting CoP is a rigorous two-year experiential program in which students achieve interview and career readiness through immersive experiences. The CoP offers students:
- Industry-specific skills training led by consultants from top firms, including Deloitte, BCG, EY, IBM, and others
- One-on-one mentorship in case interviewing, job search strategies, personal branding, and networking for consulting jobs
- Experiential learning on pro bono consulting projects with for-profit and nonprofit clients
The CoP model is flexible and recognizes that each student learns differently. With three levels of career preparedness to navigate (Beginner, Accelerated and Advanced), CoP students can customize their learning paths, develop at their own pace, and design their own outcomes.
