Learner goals and capabilities

The Capstone Projects are taken on by individual students or very small teams to complete a project for you in a 10 week timeframe. This coming semester (Fall Term) runs from October 10th to December 23rd, 2022.

The Capstone Project is an opportunity for students to amalgamate all of their learning in their MBA program to complete a project of value for you, the client. They manage the project themselves, with faculty acting as advisors. This includes developing a realistic Statement of Work in consultation with you, the client.

This course is a requirement for the more experienced students on the Certified Management Consulting stream and all have at least 5 years work experience before starting their MBA.

Expected outcomes and deliverables

Students are expected to work on the projects for about 10 hours per week during the term and the deliverables will depend on the Statement of Work defined by the student and the client. The final deliverables usually include a presentation of findings and recommendations and a written report. The format of both of those depends on the needs/desires of the client.
