Having learned the foundations of product management, data analysis and design thinking in a rigorous program, students are now looking to apply their top-of-the-industry product management knowledge to organizations like yours in a consulting project. Students will be working in groups to break down, assess and recommend opportunities in your organization's product management process specifically in the area of innovation and MVP testing.
Students and employers are expected to set up clear lines of communication prior to the 4-week project start time.
For this project, we are looking for employers who have at least a couple of employees within the organization who can be the point of contact for the students to help them navigate, get intros to the different employee interviews that they'll need to complete to meet the requirements of this project.
