STRAT-O program

Strat-O is an extracurricular enrichment program for top-performing students at our department. Candidates are personally invited to join the program based on their academic performance and engagement in our courses.

Our goal? The best students in our field should also be optimally prepared to shape their personal career paths. That's why we support our Strat-O participants with career coaching, guest lectures from the corporate and consulting world, case study workshops, and mentoring programs—all centered around the topics of strategy and organization. Our aim is twofold: to equip them with the tools needed for application processes in exclusive strategic work environments (corporate strategy/consulting), and to connect them with potential employers while also supporting their personal development through workshops and lectures.

Want to be part of Strat-O?

Attend our courses and show real dedication!

For Companies:

The program serves as a gateway to the top students in the field of strategy and organization from each academic year—highly qualified future employees.

We would be happy to discuss potential collaboration opportunities with you, such as guest lectures, company visits, thesis projects, or direct mentoring.
