Experiential Learning (EL) is a key part of our educational program. Using this "living case" methodology, students are able to gain experience in the workplace and learn how to apply the skills learned through the program. Additionally, this is an opportunity for students to gain relevant work experience to benefit their careers. Students are paired with an organization and work with them over the course of a semester on a specific project. EL projects are a required component of the following courses:

• SUS6110: Operations and Production
• SUS6050: Strategic Management
• SUS6060: Managerial Marketing
• SUS6040: Managerial Finance
