Summer program pairs students and recent grads with NH businesses, nonprofit organizations, and government institutions

Tuesday, May 19, 2020

The Peter T. Paul College of Business and Economics at UNH invites businesses and nonprofits to engage with undergraduate students and new alumni in completing corporate consulting projects.

Many Paul College students and recent graduates are unable to experience summer internships or begin jobs due to COVID-19. These students are seeking opportunities to continue building expertise by working with outside organizations on real-world projects. 

These experiential learning opportunities help prepare students to excel in their careers, engage in their communities and meet the challenges of the global business world. 

Startups, established business, nonprofit organizations, and government institutions are encouraged to submit project proposals (or problem statements) here. The submission deadline is Monday, June 1 at 5 p.m. Proposals will be reviewed and projects selected by the week of June 8. Students will work on these projects from June 15 until Aug. 10. 

According to Associate Dean Neil Niman, "Engaging with outside organizations on projects gives our students a unique opportunity to apply their knowledge to solve real-world business problems while also strengthening Paul College's connections and contributions to the business community."
