Cornerstone Research Summer Analyst
Summer analysts work in case teams that range in size but typically include a faculty expert, senior consultants, and analysts. Within a case team, the summer analyst makes important contributions during all phases of a project—from developing case strategy to conducting analyses, to preparing experts for testimony. Casework has both quantitative and qualitative elements, involving such key responsibilities as conducting financial and economic modeling, examining market and industry behavior, and presenting findings to colleagues and clients. This internship is available to current juniors and is not limited to specific majors, but applicants need a strong quantitative background (demonstrated either through coursework or previous work experience).
Applications are due by 4 pm on February 9.
