Unique Content

A two-part group capstone project provides a means to integrate new knowledge and apply it to real-world business concerns. All participants work on a comprehensive international business consulting project which serves as a thesis equivalent. Through it, classroom learning is applied firsthand to advancing the business interests of a sponsoring corporation, a State of Nebraska economic development target, or in furthering the goals of a grand marketing organization. As part of the project, all students will conduct field research overseas for 10 to 14 days, normally during June of the program's second year. Overseas travel and research costs are included in the program's tuition and fees.
