Are you ready to embark on a collaborative journey with the bright minds of Champlain College's Business Management program? Our institution, renowned for fostering excellence, invites you to explore a unique opportunity – the Management Capstone Project. In this course, senior business majors culminate their academic journey with a comprehensive research-based project. It's a synthesis of their knowledge, experience, and a commitment to making a real-world impact.


This course runs up to six terms per year (approximately every eight weeks) and is dependent on enrollment. If there are not enough students, we will postpone until the following term.


Why Choose Our Students:

Our students are not your average graduates. They bring a wealth of knowledge and enthusiasm to the table. As they approach the culmination of their academic journey, they are eager to apply their skills and insights to solve real-world business challenges. Their commitment to excellence and their dedication to creating meaningful solutions make them valuable partners for your project.


Matching Process


  1. Submit a Match Request: Share your project details with us through the Riipen platform.
  2. Project Suitability Discussion: The professor will engage with you in a video call to assess the project's fit and feasibility.
  3. Confirmation: Once both parties agree, the match is confirmed on the Riipen platform.
  4. Student Selection: Students form groups and choose projects to collaborate on.
  5. Collaboration Begins: Work closely with the selected student group to achieve project success.


Ideal Partner:


We seek business owners who are passionate about collaborating with students and have clear projects with well-defined business problem statements. Projects can be research-focused, task-focused, or a mix of both. We value partners who are open to negotiating project scopes for a mutually beneficial collaboration.

Expected outcomes and deliverables

Our students are committed to delivering valuable outcomes for your organization, typically in the form of a final report that summarizes their research, findings, and recommendations. However, we are open to discussing alternative deliverables that align with your specific project needs.

Project Examples

While the possibilities are endless, here are some project titles that align with the Management Capstone Project:


  1. Optimizing Supply Chain Efficiency for Small Businesses
  2. Market Expansion Strategy for Niche Products
  3. Employee Retention Solutions in the Post-Pandemic Era
  4. Sustainable Business Practices Implementation Plan
  5. Digital Marketing Transformation for Enhanced Customer Engagement


Companies must answer the following questions to submit a match request to this experience:

What's the business problem statement of your project?

Are you open to the possibility of the student conducting both secondary (literature review) and primary (field-based) research for this project, as required by the capstone course?

What type of guidance and mentorship you can provide to the students as they progress with their research and final deliverables?

Are you open to discussions regarding the scope and objectives of the project to ensure it aligns with the student's learning needs while delivering value to your organization?
