Students for Projects

Utilising a powerhouse of knowledge to deliver powerful results!

The Management Projects Program creates, develops and facilitates opportunities for AGSM students to work in teams with clients on issues of strategic importance. In collaboration with senior executives, the AGSM student teams define and analyse the business issue and make recommendations for action through written and oral presentations. Conducted over ten weeks, these projects have the capacity to address a wide range of issues including:

Strategic planning and competitive analyses
Market analysis for business growth opportunities
Re-designing the customer acquisition process
Viability of launching new products in the Australian market
Improvement of organisational performance and measurement
Determining productivity benchmarks and potential efficiencies
Evaluating a pricing strategy
Researching and analysing consumer preferences

We build a project scope around the client’s issue, and then assembles a consulting team of 3-5 Masters of Business Administration (MBA) candidates. A Faculty Member who is an expert in the field or industry in question, as well as an experienced Project Manager ensures that the project is completed on time, on budget, and to the client’s satisfaction.

Clients include a wide range of businesses – from large multinational corporations to foundling entrepreneurial ventures moving into the next stages after a business plan is launched.

Project teams have performed strategic consulting for over 100 organisations from the corporate, government and non-profit sectors since 1996. Clients include:

Merck & Co., Hewlett Packard, BT Financials, News Interactive, Telstra, Deutsche Bank, Australian Stock Exchange, Qantas, AMP, TNT Asia, Disabilities Services Australia, Zurich Australia, Federal Airports Corporation, IBM Global Services, Australia Post, Colliers International, SAP Australia, Austrade, SBC Warburg, Commonwealth Bank, Mayne Nickless, Cochlear, CSIRO, South Australia Water , Energy Australia, Sony, Fujitsu Australia, Dupont Australia, Westfield Holdings, Defence Equity Organisation, Royal Botanical Gardens, Tyco, George Weston, Australian Capital Partners, Bain, Lucent Technologies.
