1.5 credits · GM

This course is designed to expose students to common multifaceted analytical and decision-making scenarios they will face in a management consulting environment, be it a large consultancy, a specialized boutique, or an internal consulting group within a Fortune 500 company. The topics, hands-on class work, and assignments are largely based on real cases the instructor has faced in the course of his management consulting career. This real-life approach provides students the analytical tools necessary to better prepare for a career in management consulting. In this hands-on lab-style course, we will develop and use Excel spreadsheets to analyze a variety of business problems and derive client recommendations.
