PA Master thesis mentoring programme
Are you writing your master thesis this spring? Would you like competent feedback and mentoring from a team of skilled management consultants?
PA Consulting Group offers a mentoring programme for bright students who would like guidance from a team of consultants that have one or more professional capabilities and/or deep industry knowledge. You can apply as an individual or as a group. The only thing needed is to have an exciting idea for your master thesis and a wish for being challenged to create the best result.
The programme runs throughout the Spring semester with a couple of events to support your thesis process besides the meetings with your mentors. We will aim to provide a mentor team consisting of a junior and a senior consultant. This ensures the best split between deep knowledge/capabilities and relatively recent experience with writing a master thesis project.
The mentors’ role will not substitute your formal supervisor, instead they will provide you with insights from ‘real life’, guide you in managing your project process and help you apply theoretical frameworks in a pragmatic manner. In addition to mentoring, you will also be introduced to some of PA’s professional training materials and methodologies that can help improve your structure and presentation skills.
The number and frequency of meetings between mentors and mentees are decided individually to ensure the best fit with each thesis process.
