HOW TO APPLY:

Students who are interested in applying for the program should submit their applications through the CEL Website.

  • Click on Students – Apply Here
  • Fill in the “Student Applying for Taylor” and then click “Continue”
  • Check the box for each project of interest
  • Rank order your selected projects, with “1” being your preferred project, “2” your second preference, etc.  You do not need to rank every project, and you will only be considered for projects that you rank.  You may apply for projects even if you have not yet registered for the class (MGT 520).

TCCP consulting teams consist of 2 – 4 students; you may apply as an individual or as a team.  If you apply as a team, please list the other members on your application, but know that each team member must also apply.   In addition, know that even if you have already registered for the course, you must still apply for your projects of interest.

Participants in the TCCP are expected to dedicate approximately eight to ten hours per week to their project during Summer B, and will receive 1.5 credit hours for this course.  Each team is required to make a final presentation, with final presentations tentatively slated for the evenings of August 12, 13 or 14 from 4:00-9:30PM.

Students who participate in the program should plan on attending the mandatory Taylor Course Introduction on Thursday, June 19 in Classroom 104 in Simon Hall at 5:30-6:15PM.
