Rutgers MBA Team Consulting Is a Win for Students and Companies
Yasemin Dalgali has led overall reimbursement and health economics strategies for a Massachusetts-based medical device manufacturer since 2015. While studying for her MBA at Rutgers University, Yasemin Dalgali participated in the school’s MBA Team Consulting Program, where she focused on strategies for shared services and crafted a plan to save close to $1 million annually in state government spending.
Rutgers’ MBA Team Consulting Program offers students the opportunity to expand their practical career experience in their chosen field while still at school. Businesses benefit from this program by receiving independent, strategic assistance from the university’s emerging professionals for a nominal fee. To date, the school’s students have worked on more than 1,500 projects for companies of all types and sizes.
The program assists participating companies in solving an existing business problem. A team consisting of half a dozen students works on the issue, supported by the wide array of Rutgers resources available to them. Parameters include strict confidentiality of all client data and other critical information. By the conclusion of the project, the students deliver a defined report containing analysis and suggested strategies for moving forward.
Students gain not only real-world experience, but valuable industry contacts, some with the potential to lead to future employment.
