Montana State University business students to offer consulting for area businesses and non-profits

Many entrepreneurs believe that, regardless of formal education, there is no substitute for on-the-job learning. The Entrepreneurial Experience (BMGT 463) at Montana State University (MSU)’s Jake Jabs College of Business & Entrepreneurship (JJCBE) offers students real-world entrepreneurial experiences in projects assisting start-up companies. As a client company of these student-consultants, your business can have a student team (likely two members), which takes on a specific challenge in your business and brings knowledge from this course and other business education to bear on it for a period of 13 weeks. Students receive three hours of academic credit for the course and no monetary compensation for their work. The client receives free labor focused on the issue of its choosing, resulting in a deliverable which summarizes findings, conclusions, and recommendations.
