Main themes
Business projects are designed as a real life learning experience for students. International student teams, comparable to consultancy teams, solve a real-life business problem supervised by both a corporate and an academic supervisor. CEMS Business Project is expected to represent 50% of each student's workload during the Spring Semester.
After a kick-off meeting with the company and the academic supervisor, students work in groups on a specific business project autonomously. Students manage their project and interactions directly with a company. They may require advices and guidance by the academic supervisor, to discuss and clarify any issue faced during the implementation of the business project. A mid-term meeting is formally planned with the academic supervisor, just as regular progress reports and timesheets are required from students, according to a pre-established calendar.

Each group is required to write a final output (report and/or slide deck) and prepare an oral presentation (30-40 min).

The set of slides (ppt file) for the oral presentation can be sent by email on the day of the presentation.
By submitting an assignment for evaluation:
- students assert that it accurately reflects the facts and to do so students need to have verified the facts, especially if they originate from generative AI resources;
- students assert that all your sources that go beyond common knowledge are suitably attributed. Common knowledge is what a knowledgeable reader can assess without requiring confirmation from a separate source;
- students assert that they have respected all specific requirements of their assigned work, in particular requirements for transparency and documentation of process, or have explained themselves where this was not possible.
If any of these assertions are not true, whether by intent or negligence, students have violated their commitment to truth, and possibly other aspects of academic integrity. This constitutes academic misconduct.
