Our Mission

The University of Chicago Consulting Club is a student-run organization founded to help undergraduate and non-MBA graduate students learn about and prepare for careers in the consulting industry.The primary goal of the UCCC is to be a strong resource for students preparing for recruitment along both the short- and long-term timescales. To that end, we offer a variety of events, including:

  • Presentations by visiting consulting firms on a variety topics such as making the most of a summer internships and other general topics
  • Panel discussions with consultants in various phases of their careers in order to gain inside knowledge about the career path
  • Case competitions to provide further networking opportunities and exposure to real-life consulting cases
  • General professional development opportunities to help students become more competitive when approaching recruiters.

    • Although the majority of our members are interested in exploring careers in business management consulting, we welcome students who are pursuing careers in other consulting fields, including, but not limited to, human resources, (HR), information technologies (IT), search engine optimization (SEO), healthcare, biotechnology, and economic consulting.

    Our Events

    Panel Events

    UCCC's panel events are one of the most popular career events that bring in hundreds of students. Companies will either host a company-specific panel event with UCCC, or UCCC will invite a number of consultants from various companies to talk about consulting experiences. These sessions help students and companies connect.

    Networking Sessions

    UCCC often hosts networking sessions where students gather together to discuss cases, career strategies, and other business skills. These sessions are meant to strengthen the student consulting community while also increasing business knowledge. Last year, we held a weekly class on case interviews where students would hone their case interviewing skills while also making new connection.

    Mini-MBA

    In addition to the smaller scale events that we hold throughout the academic year, UCCC also plans the Mini-MBA, one of the largest professional development events for students on campus. The Mini-MBA is held in the Spring of each year, and offers an opportunity for non-business students to get a taste of business fundamentals, including, but not limited to, economics, finance, and negotiation.
