ENGINEERING MANAGEMENT PROJECTS

Corporate Partner Projects

Access to expertise. We engage in learning partnerships with our corporate partners. Working collaboratively with members of your organization, EMP faculty and students can help you tackle your technology and management challenges.

Class-based student teams can investigate and complete projects for partner firms in Colorado and across the United States. The projects are typically executed at no cost to the company as they are learning opportunities for students.

Students working on their Final Degree Capstone, similar to a Master's Thesis, are often looking for opportunities to generate meaningful research for firms. EMP can match student knowledge, interest and expertise with the needs of our partner companies.
Graduate students seeking professional certification in Project Management are required to evaluate the project management practices in a company or work unit. EMP corporate partners can request that a student evaluate their practices, creating an outstanding learning experience for both the student and the partner company.
