Project examples
Students can complete a substantial consulting project for your organization over the placement period. We suggest providing a starting project, but as the placement goes on there may be other duties or projects the student is asked to complete as well. Providing a central project creates structure for the internship, and gives the student (and company) a tangible goal.
Students in Colorado State University Global's respective Accounting and Finance programs can complete projects for a range of business functions, including strategy, operations, and marketing. Project examples may include, but are not limited to:
- Accounting - Financial accounting; management accounting; budgeting; forecasting analysis; internal audit; transactional processes asset registers; payroll, data migration; policies and procedure;, leases, GL journal entry; reconciliations; risk management; and compliance work.
- Finance - Design new/improved accounting processes; identify opportunities to streamline costs; financial planning; retail banking; corporate banking; financial analysis and modelling.
