Center for Career and Professional Development

Registration is now open for the Diversity and Inclusion Professional Development event on Friday, February 9, and Saturday, February 10, in the Tippie Alumni Center. This event is being planned in collaboration with the IDEAS Center, Career Education, Alumni Affairs, and Student Diversity Organizations/Leaders. Register here. This program is strategically designed to support historically and systemically underrepresented students (students of color, first-generation, LGBTQ) by providing opportunities to build important alumni networks. It is our hope that these important networks can possibly lead to mentoring, internships, shadowing experiences, and possible employment in the future. Most importantly, we hope students will learn about different career paths and hear how alumni have dealt with career challenges, failures, and unexpected changes to achieve success. Students can also get a free professional headshot taken during the event. Business casual attire is recommended.

Cornerstone Research Summer Analyst

Summer analysts at Cornerstone 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.
