Real World Projects
Real-World Projects
At Whitman, company projects are not hypothetical. Faculty partner with real businesses to bring actual challenges into the classroom. You will work in teams to analyze data, develop solutions, and present recommendations to the people who need them. Sometimes your work gets implemented. Sometimes it saves the company millions of dollars.
These projects show up across disciplines and degree levels. The companies are real, the problems are real, and the stakes are real.
What This Looks Like
Supply Chain Consulting (Lean Six Sigma)
Teams of students partner with local and regional companies to solve supply chain problems using the Lean Six Sigma methodology. Past projects have addressed inventory management, process waste, and quality control for organizations ranging from hospitals to technology companies. Students who complete the program are eligible for Green Belt certification from Syracuse University.
Brand and Business Analytics
Work directly with major brands on data-driven projects. In one recent engagement, student teams analyzed raw operational data for a global athletic brand, competed to develop the most actionable insights and presented findings to the company's executive leadership. These projects put you in the room with real decision-makers, working with real data, under real deadlines.
Capstone
In your final year, you will work with a team to tackle a complex business challenge from start to finish. Capstone projects span industries and disciplines, giving you portfolio-ready work and the experience of delivering results under pressure.
