The HSG combines academic excellence with real-world challenges. Working closely with businesses and organisations, we develop knowledge, skills and solutions that make a difference.
‘The capstone project offered the opportunity to tackle real-world challenges in collaboration with an industry partner. The close teamwork, the direct insight into real-world practice and the feeling of creating genuine added value through our own results were particularly memorable.’
“Jonas Boetel (Student)”
‘I was also pleasantly surprised by just how much even a young team of students can contribute to the further development and success of an established organisation.’
“Axel Michael Thoma (Capstone lecturer)”
‘As part of the “Strategic Management” capstone project, students worked alongside Zurich Public Transport to develop innovative approaches to strengthening leadership development as a key driver of corporate strategy. This resulted in concrete recommendations and prototypes, such as the ‘Mein Fahrplan’ app. It was particularly pleasing that one of the teams was awarded the cross-capstone prize.’
