Year 2: Advanced Practice - consultancy project
During the second year of the course, you and your fellow students will undertake a semester-long group consultancy project. Working on a business project brief provided by LJMU in collaboration with industry, the consultancy project enables you to apply the theoretical knowledge you have learnt and gain workplace experience at the same time.
Students are placed into project groups and assigned an industry mentor to help them navigate the consultancy project and provide business and sector insight. Industry mentors help provide a safe environment in which to learn and develop.
You will gain highly sought-after management competencies making you more employable and more able to contribute to organisational success. This is of critical importance as contemporary organisations require digitally competent managers who are able to exploit the new technologies to attain goals.
