Corporate Challenge

NYIT School of Management (SOM) facilitates direct engagement with companies so that students can easily learn to resolve real-world business problems. The Corporate Challenge allows students to interact with top-level company leadership and to address emerging issues faced by companies inside and outside their business environment. Students, as a team, work with fellow students to resolve identified challenges written in a case study format over the period of several weeks. Ultimately, the leading teams present their findings and recommendations to the company executives during the semi-finals and finals of the competition.

The Corporate Challenge is open to all New York Institute of Technology undergraduate and graduate business students.
