Class Projects  
Business  >  Business Community  >  Class Projects

The College offers a number of faculty-guided class projects at the graduate and undergraduate levels. Your organization can benefit from new and different perspectives while giving students an opportunity to solve real-world business problems. In addition, Class projects can also be customized to address your organization’s unique challenges and opportunities. As a result of evaluating students in action, many employers often hire top-performing graduates who already understand their business.

Contact the Ohio Small Business Development Center 937-775-3503 if you are interested having a class collaborate with your organization.

Student Team Projects

The Ohio SBDC works closely with the faculty and students at Wright State University to deliver professional assistance to the business community. Student Team projects are normally supervised by professors with business experience and students are normally performing at a graduate level within the project area.

How it Works:

  1. SBDC clients contact an SBDC Business Advisor and express an interest in working with students on an internal challenge they are facing.

  2. Client business owner completes a Business Profile Form and submits it to the Business Advisor for consideration in upcoming courses.

  3. A Business Advisor and Wright State Professor will select business clients that have challenges that best match the course curriculum for the upcoming term.

  4. Selected client businesses will be contacted with instructions, meeting times and expectations for class participation.

  5. SBDC Business Advisor will monitor progress and perform a follow-up contact after the project is completed.
To start the process, download, complete and return the following two forms:
