The Graduate Consulting Program is a unique opportunity for graduate students and postdoctoral fellows to apply their critical thinking and communication skills by solving real-life business problems for companies, government agencies and nonprofit organizations in British Columbia. In every 3-month project, a selected team of 5 graduate students will be exposed to a real-life business environment with a business client and will receive a series of training sessions and mentorship from local advisors, leaders in industry and consultants. Each project culminates in a final internal client report and a client presentation with the possibility of follow-up work depending on client need and availability.
