FACILITATE REAL-WORLD LEARNING IN THE CLASSROOM The Pepperdine Education to Business (E2B) MBA Consulting program serves as an unrivaled cornerstone of experiential learning within our advanced degree programs. Through partnerships with global powerhouses, regional brands, and startups, industry collaborative learning is incorporated into the curriculum, allowing students to apply real-world solutions to current business challenges faced by organizations.

GETTING STARTED FOR CLIENTS

HOW E2B WORKS + E2B case projects are assigned to relevant MBA candidates who will invest 7-14 weeks to research, analyze, and provide recommended solutions to a business challenge. + Faculty experts define the scope and projected outcomes of the project in collaboration with client mentors.

+ Project checkpoints are built in to allow faculty members and company executives to monitor and guide student progress. + Student teams present a consultative deliverable, both written and oral, to clients’ key executives with action items and recommendations.

THE VALUE OF E2B “The E2B program is a great resource for organizations looking for clarity and an outside perspective on solving a business problem. At World Vision, we’ve utilized it twice in the last few years and have appreciated the partnership with both faculty and students.”

Russ Shumaker Segment Manager of Corporations and Foundations • World Vision

When an organization is chosen as a Pepperdine E2B partner following a request submission, a faculty expert works directly with the organization’s leaders to define the scope of the project, including required outcomes. Companies are then assigned to the relevant, faculty-led MBA course and collaborate with a team of three to six MBA students over the duration of the project.
