Pre-selected industry professionals bring their greatest challenge for Brandeis students to solve. Students will be divided by Hiatt into small teams and be provided a case study or exercise. Students will work collaboratively with their team to develop solutions to these exercises. Teams will present their solutions to a panel of industry experts who seek to help students develop professionally and whose organizations are committed to recruiting at Brandeis for jobs and/or internships during the 2015-16 academic year. Participants will:

• Gain in-depth insight into the types of problems field-specific industry professionals experience

• Strengthen communication and networking skills by presenting to professionals through group pitch presentations
