| About Students |
The Notre Dame Master of Science in Management (MSM) Interterm Program matches teams of 4-6 students in the MSM with companies and non-profit organizations in the South Bend area to complete four-day on-site student consulting projects from Monday, October 10 through Thursday, October 13, 2022. Participating organizations identify a staff person who meets with students in person during the four-day project to provide context and direction for the project. This is intended as a learning experience for students who, with mentorship, are able to produce final deliverables with value to your organization.
Masters students in the MSM program come from a wide variety of academic backgrounds and are assembled into learning teams with complementary skillsets. This interdisciplinary approach is a key feature of MSM Interterm project teams. Students are typically recent graduates from their undergraduate institutions and are seeking opportunities to enhance their professional business skills.
