Cape Breton University invites employers to collaborate with students from the Comparative Development course. Partnering with our learners offers companies and organizations a unique opportunity to gain fresh insights and innovative solutions tailored to their needs. Our learners are experienced in developing grant proposals, articulating a theory of change, and linking activities to intended outcomes in a structured and evidence-based way. They can also create results matrices that include measurable indicators for monitoring progress. Projects may include desk reviews of international best practices, ensuring that the recommended strategies are consistent with global standards and applicable to your organization's context. 

Cape Breton University invites employers to collaborate with students in the Business Management Post-Baccalaureate Diploma Capstone Project course. This experiential course pairs student teams with real companies to tackle pressing business challenges, blending academic learning with practical application. These projects allow students to explore critical business aspects like marketing and economics, helping them understand organizational priorities and apply competencies in a dynamic environment. Students choose a capstone project, providing a practical focus to their learning and enabling them to strengthen their management skills for careers in various sectors.

Final-year business students at Cape Breton University are ready to apply their expertise to real-world projects. Through the Capstone Project course, students focus on critical thinking, decision-making, and using tools like Microsoft Excel to tackle business challenges. We seek employers who can provide practical projects and are open to guiding students, offering regular feedback, and participating in final presentations. Your collaboration will help students refine their skills and provide your business with valuable insights.

This Capstone Project provides students with the opportunity to demonstrate competency on the key concepts of business analytics. Students will integrate knowledge gained throughout the program - including leadership and management principals, analytical skills, data visualization, data mining, and statistics – to complete the capstone project. By taking this course, students will be guided through the process of developing their soft (communications) and hard (Technical) skills while delivering a business analytics project to support decision making in organizations. The emphasis will be on the application of methodologies and analytical tools to solve real-world problems in R&D, marketing, supply chain, healthcare, finance and/or other disciplines.
