Description

About WUCC

Wharton Undergraduate Consulting Club is one of the oldest student-run consultancies at Penn providing consulting services to companies in both the Philadelphia area and across the country. We are composed of a diverse set of students and skill sets from all four schools to solve our clients’ toughest problems.

Our Work

Our consultants work with startups, small businesses, and corporations on various projects throughout the semester and may have the opportunity to visit the client on-site. These projects range from developing marketing plans to assessing market entry strategies where consultants provide data-driven recommendations for our clients.

In addition to our consulting services, we also provide a wide scope of professional development opportunities for those interested in pursuing consulting as a career. We have committees for Conference, Corporate Relations, Marketing, Events, and Internal Development. We regularly host events with experienced speakers and corporate partners which are open to all GBM members.

Our Culture

Beyond work, WUCC members form lasting relationships with one another. We are a close-knit community where members have found close friends, roommates, and cooking buddies. Throughout the year, there will be many social events for the entire club, your committee, and your individual consulting team so that you’re able to form bonds with many people in the club.

Next Steps

For the upcoming semester, you will have the opportunity to join WUCC as a committee member. We take members from all four schools and do not require any prior consulting knowledge. If you are someone with a great attitude, works well in teams, and has an interest in consulting, don’t hesitate to apply!
