Project Examples

In this assignment, students will conduct an overview of your business and gain an understanding of your industry and competitive landscape. As a participating organization, you can direct their research by providing particular areas of interest and context on the challenges you face. By allowing students to perform an unbiased assessment and review, you’ll receive unique insights into areas where they offer special insight.
