Ways to Get Involved
Sponsor a consulting project
Identify a business need and sponsor a team of students to find a solution.
Students work in teams of four to five during the fall semester to tackle complex, finance- and strategy-focused projects. Each team presents its findings to you, the sponsor, in a final presentation. Sponsors join on a weekly or bi-weekly basis to answer questions. There is no fee to participate.
Join our speaker series
Share your real-world finance insights and experiences with students in our Current Topics MBA class. Help students bridge the gap between academic theory and industry practice.
Contact Andrea Sorenson or Barb Bolens about being a speaker.
Mentor a student
Provide advice and support for a student as they begin the MBA program and their recruiting journey. Students are expected to initiate connections and conversations with their mentor.
Give to the Nicholas Center
Make an impact and help further the Nicholas Center’s mission by donating to the Don M. Condon and Linda M. Condon Graduate Fellowship Fund. This fund provides financial support to students who exemplify Don’s spirit, commitment, and leadership in the field of corporate finance.
