LeBow International Consulting Residency: Berlin + Prague

Program Overview

The international consulting residency course at Drexel LeBow offers students a unique combination of real-world consulting and international travel. In this class, students act as consultants to an international organization and experience international business firsthand. Consulting projects are interdisciplinary; this course is open to all Drexel majors.

Ten weeks of the course take place on campus, with student-client interaction facilitated virtually. During the final week of the course, students travel abroad on an international residency to present their final recommendations to the client in person. During the one-week international residency, students also participate in company visits and cultural experiences.

During the on-campus course, students will explore business problem solving through project-based learning – conducting research and analyses to provide recommendations for a partner company abroad. Projects may focus on finance, marketing, sustainability, or other areas. Working in teams, students will connect with the company partner virtually throughout the course, then present their work to the company in person while abroad.

Learn more about previous international consulting residencies here from the Dornsife Office for Experiential Learning.
