Boston Consulting Group is one of the world’s leading consulting firms. We solve problems, from helping a foundation fight malaria, to helping a retailer optimize their sales! Think of any business issues, we’re there by their side helping them find solutions. In the last year during the pandemic, we even worked side-by-side with the US States to define their COVID-response strategy, for example how to re-open schools, how to distribute vaccines, etc.

During this panel, students will hear from women who use STEM in unique and creative ways to help solve problems in industries like Aerospace & Defense, Biopharmaceuticals, Finance, Healthcare, Media & Entertainment, and Travel & Tourism. Some of their clients include Starbucks, Boeing, and REI! Speakers will tell their stories, share their challenges and how they overcame them, and why they love their jobs! Students will then participate in a live question and answer session with the panelists!

Students are invited to stay for an optional extended Q&A for 15-30 minutes after the panel ends.
