Study Abroad in Florence

The Business Consulting Course with associated experiential learning equips you to work as a practitioner in a real-world enterprise. Your professor will guide you through a professional consulting project. As part of a team, you will research a business or financial concern or deficiency, define the problem, and then pitch your solution(s). From this project you will learn how to apply skills for consultancy in business management through a local and global context. Your market research, communication, and PR skills will have a meaningful impact on a local company.

The manufacturing industry constitutes the core of the Florentine business sector. Students in the Business Consultancy course in Florence will work mainly with small and medium enterprises (SMEs) distributed in various production fields. Students will become familiar with the various aspects of the companies they are working with, and their sales and product-making processes: from strategy and vision to operational phases.
