Partner with ASU’s W. P. Carey School of Business to sponsor student projects in our graduate capstone courses. Your organization benefits from sponsoring student projects by gaining access to innovative solutions in artificial intelligence, supply chain management, and business analytics. You'll also support student learning, experience fresh perspectives, and connect with emerging talent.

- W. P. Carey MBA with a supply chain management concentration

Over several months, you'll meet weekly with your student team as they develop solutions tailored to your organization's needs and business challenges. These capstone projects are valuable for both graduate students and companies, serving as the culmination of business school education while providing value to your organization.
Apply to be a capstone project partner
Step 1: Submit a project proposal
Fill out the form below with your project proposals. You can propose multiple ideas, as long as they are related to supply chain management, business analytics, machine learning, or AI. On the form, indicate if you want more than one student team working on your project.
Graduate capstone projects are conducted in the fall and spring semesters. Check the proposal deadline on the form before you submit.
Please feel free to contact Mike Benesh with questions or to discuss potential project ideas. We would be delighted to explore ways your organization could participate in graduate capstone projects.
Step 2: Confirm partner commitment
Once your proposal is approved, submit the form below to confirm your organization's commitment to the partnership. Your project will then be assigned to a professor to get started.
To ensure project confidentiality, you'll also need to submit a brief NDA form. If your organization has one on file within the last two years, you may skip this part. Student teams will follow all NDA provisions.
Graduate capstone projects are conducted in the fall and spring semesters. Check the commitment deadline on the form before you submit. We look forward to working with you on your project.
