Eckhart Consulting Club
Eckhart Consulting is an undergraduate club of the University of Chicago that offers pro-bono and affordable management consulting services. In collaboration with experts from top-tier management consulting firms, the club has advised a diverse set of clients since 2002.
Becoming a Member
Undergraduates who wish to be a part of the club need to send their application for review. They will undergo case and behavioral interviews to prove they have the competencies. Once accepted, they must devote at least five hours per week and must deliver quality output for the clients. The main advantage they get is they are given ample number of opportunities to analyze, discuss and resolve real-world business cases. Their interaction with clients also serves as a perfect time to network with people in local industries.
Case Competition
The club partners with the consulting club of Northwestern University and Boston Consulting Group for an annual case competition in spring. Students at both schools form teams and present their recommendations to clients. Those who did well in the first round are then invited to the final round at BCG Chicago’s office. This activity is good for those who wish to improve their confidence and management consulting skills.
