The Project + Presentation (40%)
You must select a theme or topic for your project. The topic and/or theme should be relevant to the organization in which you are working. The report should consist of two parts: Part I of the report should include a description of: the business environment, the kind of business it is (service, manufacturing, non-profit, government), its mission and values, its major markets, its marketing strategies, how it is organized, its employees, its annual sales, how it organizes its finances and operating budgets. To complete Part II of the report the student should, with the employer:
- Identify a business problem or issue relevant to the employer’s business, the employer’s industry, or the Moroccan business environment.
- Study and analyze the business problem/issue/opportunity with the aim of examining its impact on the employer’s business.
- Propose recommendations and/or solutions to the problem.
Specific projects proposed by the employer, which meet the above criteria, will also be considered for approval by the Internship Advisor.
Care must be taken in order to protect the confidentiality of the organization. It is your responsibility to get permission from your employer before attaching any company documents to your report. You must respect your company’s rules and policies.
The report should be formatted in APA style, with references and citations, if appropriate. It should be written in both a French and English version. A preliminary copy of the complete reports must be submitted to the Internship Advisor by the first week of classes of the Fall 2007 semester.
In the Fall semester, students will be required to make a presentation of their project to a committee consisting primarily of SBA faculty.
