The Fall 2013 version of the International Consulting Practicum will be conducted jointly with the Indian Institute of Management, Bangalore (IIMB). Enrollment is restricted to 16 IIMB and 16 Johnson students who will work in teams of 4 on a company sponsored consulting project in an emerging market (most likely, but not necessarily, India). Students will learn how to structure a consulting engagement and report on results, based on the Minto Pyramid Principle. IIMB students will visit Ithaca and New York City during September 2-6. During that week, there will be a number of mandatory lectures to be conducted outside of the regularly scheduled class time plus some optional company visits. Johnson students will travel to Bangalore during the week of December 16 to visit companies in India. The anticipated travel cost is $2,500-3,000 per student, with the possibility of a subsidy depending on company sponsorship of the course.
