What IT system improvements, new technologies, or evaluation projects can you implement to help you achieve your business goals? In this project, a team of graduate school Information Technology students will help you develop a solution for an IT challenge or opportunity you may be facing.

Projects fall into one of the following areas of specialization- cloud computing, data analytics, project management or general IT. Faculty and Staff work in advance of the course to identify and vet projects for learners. This process involves meeting with companies, identifying the need and envisioning a scope that fits the course (in terms of specialization, length and depth).

About our students-

Our students are primarily adult learners and although they will have slightly different abilities and skillsets, many of our students come to Capella with years of experience in their field of study or other professions.

All industry partners will receive:

• Project Plan (including the Statement of Work & Description of Deliverables)
• Presentation of Solution or Recommendations (webinar format)
• Final Project Report including an Executive Summary
• Some projects will also require the students to provide a build, prototype, proof of concept, design, or deployment of at least part of the technology solution.

Additional deliverables:

Other deliverables for this project, which may be specific to your organization, will be determined during an initial conversation between your organization and the Capella coordinator. Deliverables will be finalized during the initial meeting with the student-consultant team.
