Project Experience

Hands-on experience w/ clients from local businesses + startups to international nonprofits + leading tech companies.

Our members get real world experiences to apply their skills into the intersection of business and tech. Analysts work through the entire consulting process, from scoping and interfacing with the client to presenting final tech-based deliverables built on data-driven solutions.

Education & Skill Development

Technical and professional programming to build member skills in data science, consulting, and tech & business as a whole.

We invest significantly into our member tech + prof development, including creating weekly workshops in ML, data engineering, strategy and curating a comprehensive MDC-specific resource hub offering tracks in data science, consulting, SWE, and more.

Community

A tight-knit group of driven peers. We host socials, semester retreats, and build lifelong friendships.

From arb sunsets to ice skating socials, our team and community go beyond just project work. Community is why MDC was originally created— every member is part of a supportive network where we can work together professionally and also connect socially.
