The Core Project Assignment is your opportunity to apply the concepts and skills from your core courses to tackle a real-world challenge within your organization. In this project, you will identify a key issue and use the frameworks and tools from one of the four core courses as the foundation for your solution.

This hands-on experience will deepen your ability to analyze and address practical problems while reinforcing your learning in a real-world context. While the use of one core course is required, you may also incorporate insights from an additional (“minor”) course if relevant.

Before submitting your final Core Project, you will first submit a one-page proposal that clearly defines the problem you aim to solve and outlines your planned approach. A learning coach will then be assigned to provide feedback, helping you refine your strategy and ensure you are on the right track before your final presentation.

To complete the Core Project Assignment, you have to submit the following:

• Concise 12-slide presentation that provides an overview of the problem, outlines your approach using course frameworks, and presents a potential solution supported by data and visuals.
• 3-5 minute video executive summary that identifies the issue you are trying to address in your organisation and potential solution. 

After submitting your Core Project, you will participate in the Core Project Seminar, a dynamic platform for sharing insights, exchanging ideas, and engaging in mutual learning. To enrich the experience, you will be grouped thematically with peers working on similar challenges, fostering deeper discussions and meaningful connections across projects.

The Core Project will be assessed on a Pass/Fail basis by coaches. To achieve a passing grade, your submission must clearly define the problem, demonstrate the application of relevant concepts and tools from at least one core course, and showcase critical thinking and problem-solving skills. You may also incorporate insights from another core course to enhance your solution. Coaches will evaluate only what is submitted in written and video format, so clear and effective communication and presentation is crucial.
