The Consulting Project
In line with EDHEC’s ethos of social and connective learning, you will work in a team of 3 to make useful and actionable recommendations for your chosen organisation, just as a real consultant would, on a concrete topic linked to your career plan. Your choice of topic may be linked to a company you’d like to work for, one of its customers, or a company that you would like to found or take over.
You will be supported by an academic mentor and a member of the teaching faculty in this exercise.
Teams will defend their consulting project online to a two-person panel, including a corporate representative, which will examine the clarity and thrust of its conclusions, as well as the relevance of its recommendations.
