Telfer Capstones
What is a Capstone?
A capstone is an academic experience where students conduct a research assignment on a subject that connects to community issues and present their conclusions in front of a panel of judges and stakeholders.
Michel Cloutier:
The Michel Cloutier Marketing Competition was originally introduced by the late professor and Associate Dean, Michel Cloutier, in 1986. The competition was renamed in his honour in 1991.
The purpose of the Marketing Competition is to bring students closer to the business community by working on a real business case presented by a sponsoring company.
Intopia Simulation Strategy:
The Intopia Simulation Strategy is an integral part of the Strategic Management class where the students are required to make quick decisions before a predetermined time elapses. Students must negotiate with each other in order to grow their business over the weekend. Intopia participants get immediate feedback on their decisions and are given the opportunity to apply what they learned during their 4 years at the Telfer School.
Finance Capstone:
All students of ADM 4350 (Equity Valuation) take part in a case competition where they have to estimate the value of a real-life company and propose a course of action that the company should take to solve its problems.
Accounting Capstone:
Each semester, students in the 4th-year class Case Studies in Accounting (ADM 4340) participate in a case competition in which they analyze a real company and report on accounting issues being faced by the company.
