Department of MIS, OSC and Business Analytics

Partner With Us for a Capstone Project

Partnering with the School of Business Administration's Department of MIS, OSC and Business Analytics (MOA) offers companies a valuable opportunity to support students in their Management Information Systems (MIS), Operations & Supply Chain Management (OSC), Business Analytics (BAN), or Master in Business Analytics (MBAN) Capstone Project classes.

By collaborating on these Capstone Projects, companies can provide students with hands-on experience while addressing their own business challenges. These projects, which can be conducted in-person or online across the US, create a mutually beneficial arrangement where students gain practical insights, and companies receive fresh perspectives on their operations.

Our past collaborations with regional and national firms have allowed graduating students to apply their classroom knowledge to real-world consulting projects. This approach benefits students by helping them apply theoretical concepts and provides companies with innovative solutions and improvements from a new vantage point. Below, you’ll find examples of past projects that highlight the impressive capabilities of our students.

Typically, teams of three to four students work under faculty and client management supervision, with projects ranging from 10 to 28 weeks.

  • MIS & OSC Senior Capstone projects span the full academic year (Fall & Spring Semester - 28 weeks),
  • BAN undergraduate Capstone projects last one semester (14 weeks)
  • Graduate MBAN Capstone projects extend over one semester (10 weeks).

We are seeking proposals from regional and national companies for these Capstone Projects. If interested, please submit a Capstone Project Proposal form below. For more information or to request an extension on the submission deadline, please contact us.
