***APPLICATIONS OPEN UNTIL 29th OF OCTOBER - IEM-PROJECT BOARD***

Are you going to organize THE masters study project this edition?

The IEM-Project is an ambitious study project by and for master students of this study. A group of selected students participate each edition by performing a consultancy case, trainings and a study trip. Every two years, a new edition of the IEM-Project is organized and unfortunately the seventh edition has already come to an end. Therefore, we are currently looking for the 2022-2023 board!

The goal of this project is to give the selected students a practical background besides their, mostly theoretical, courses. Multiple case studies at several companies are arranged and finally an intercontinental trip is organized. The IEM-Project is much more than just an international trip committee, it combines working, learning and traveling all together in a professional way!

As the board of the IEM-Project you are responsible for the acquisition of the cases, the organization of the trip and the general organization of the IEM-Project.

If you have any questions you can contact us personally or via our social media channels. And if you want to apply, please send your resume and motivation letter to [email protected] before the 29th of October.
