Business Project within the CEMS Programme
The Business Project is a consultancy-like project. At the beginning of the semester, companies suggested eleven topics for students. International teams of usually 3 students solve a real business problem as a one-semester part-time activity tutored by both the company and a professor in parallel. Business projects reinforce the CEMS partnership between universities, students and companies. It amounts to 15 ECTS.
Students are thus offered the opportunity:
- to gain insight into business life,
- to train their analytical and problem-solving skills,
- to apply research methods,
- to transfer theoretical knowledge into practice,
- to learn process management,
- to acquire social skills,
- to get to know potential employers and re-define their professional goals.
Students are expected:
- to take responsibility for the project,
- to strive for the best results,
- to share the workload equally within the team,
- to communicate well with their tutors.
Project results are evaluated by the academic and corporate supervisors. Students write a report and give an oral presentation, both as a group.
