Black Consulting Initiative

From the Brown directory, Aug 22, 2026

Founded in 2020 at Brown University, The Black Consulting Initiative’s mission is to educate all students, including those from underrepresented backgrounds, on consulting as a viable career path. By developing students’ consulting and professional skills through informational and collaborative workshops on topics ranging from interview strategies, resume building, consulting frameworks, case prep, and social events that afford them the chance to network with alumni, consulting firm representatives, and other club members, students are given the knowledge and structural support necessary to break into the consulting industry. Because the Black Consulting Initiative recognizes that experiential learning is key in this industry, we also offer our Spring Consulting Projects as an opportunity for students to work as a pro-bono boutique firm to apply consulting skills to low-resourced businesses, including those from underrepresented backgrounds within the Northeast. The Black Consulting Initiative gives equal and equitable opportunity to all who utilize our services. We encourage and build up students’ repertoire so they may succeed in consulting and all other professional endeavors they may pursue.
