Structured as consulting engagements, faculty-led student teams provide project management and execution for partners' information challenges and business needs. Students apply their knowledge, skills, and abilities to a wide range of areas such as data science & visualization, UX/UI design, information management, and information infrastructure design. 

From initial scoping to transferring final deliverables, the iConsultancy provides project management and support to ensure a successful project that meets partners' needs.

These projects also provide hands-on learning opportunities for INFO undergraduate and graduate students, and are the culmination of their education pre-graduation. 

Share your information and technology challenges, and the iConsultancy team will determine the appropriate university course, instructor, and student team that can develop solutions. Schedule an appointment today!
