Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2022-2023.

The Practicum is an intense, hands-on program providing applied experience and maximum interaction with prominent private equity leaders. Prior to each meeting, the executives provide complete data sets on a recently closed or pending deal that the fund has managed. During scheduled class times and in independent and team-based work, the students perform analyses and prepare deal memoranda and presentations with respect to each deal. At each meeting, students meet with senior private equity executives from the firms and engage in discussion and analysis of these investments, acting as PE associates and making investment recommendations. The Practicum is designed to allow a more natural business interaction that mimics as closely as possible the partner/associate relationship.
