Global Research and Consulting (GRC)

GRC Wharton is a premier social impact consulting organization and the founding branch of GRC Group, a global network of independently operated consulting groups around the world. We work with real clients, provide real insights, and drive real impact.

GRC was one of the first clubs I joined. Thinking back, some of my closest friends at Penn are in GRC. It's just a really open community of a lot of different, diverse backgrounds and I feel that the work that we do in GRC is very inspiring.

GRC is one of the only clubs on campus that I feel like has a real impact and does real, critical work for their clients.

It gets really nerve-racking to think that an entire company is rely on your group, yes, but you personally for an answer to this big business problem. I love how the project leader broke it down into smaller pieces that we can solve in increments so that it felt more manageable as a problem to solve.

GRC helped me bridge the gap between being one of those clueless freshman on Locust Walk and feeling like I was a part of the Penn community.

It's pretty nice to know that there's so many members and there's such different views on the club and its mission, especially the involvement.

I genuinely believe that the people in GRC are some of the most amazing people at Penn.

I think we're all very helpful and would love to see you succeed.

I think that my evolution in GRC very much mimics how much I've changed as a person.
