Collegiate Consulting Group fulfills its mission to inspire, train, and educate students about the field of consulting through our external consulting projects, consulting workshops and forums, and through our Spring consulting conference. Our external consulting projects are focused on training and educating students about the field of consulting through real world consulting projects. Each consulting project exposes students to each of the critical phases of the consulting process, namely the scoping phase, problem definition phase, research and analysis phase, and final recommendations and implementation phase.
Though our external projects represent the cornerstone of CCG’s educational philosophy of learn through doing, we strive to provide consulting knowledge to the entire Brown community through our consulting workshops and forums. Workshops focus exclusively on teaching industry best practices, consulting frameworks, and professional development, while our forums focus on educating students more broadly on the field of consulting and the different pathways into consulting.
CCG has alumni at leading firms in multiple industries, including consulting, finance, and tech
Student consultants at Brown’s Collegiate Consulting Group gain access to real-world consulting experience, professional development opportunities, and a tight-knit campus community.

CCG was tasked with optimizing Brown University resources to discover sustainable student-ambassador techniques and rewards. We conducted surveys of hundreds of Brown University students and anonymously interviewed multiple competing ambassadors. CCG encouraged Payments Co. to enter the Providence market with a coinciding increase in ambassador and consumer reward incentives which resulted in success for Payments Co.
CCG was tasked with identifying the best practices for non-profit fundraising through grants. CCG developed criteria to assess over a hundred grant opportunities for both private and public sectors at the local, state, and national levels. CCG conducted over fifty interviews with grant executives. We recommended ten optimal grant funding opportunities for the client to pursue.
CCG conducted research on 168 public school districts across the country to identify common needs. CCG provided Education Co. with multiple glaring disparities across the country. Education Co. has since taken CCG’s advice into deep consideration as it looks forward to a bright future.
CCG was tasked with analyzing consumer trends and market data to identify products that could be sold by Vending Co. with regards to space-efficiency, brand recognition, and profit margins. Vending Co. is currently testing CCG’s recommendations in a major city.
