Student Experiential Learning Program (SELP)
Deloitte is partnering with Stony Brook on an experiential learning program for Spring 2024.
“Experiential Learning is the process whereby knowledge is created through the transformation
of experience.” David Kolb
This pilot program is scheduled to run from January to April, and will entail working
with Deloitte consultants on a cloud technology implementation, project management,
and change management. Students will gain consulting skills, knowledge of Oracle ERP
(managing human resources services, finance, system configuration, and reporting/analytics),
and develop stakeholder engagement and organizational transformation capabilities.
We aim to:
- Engage students in the ERP program
- Provide an opportunity to gain hands-on experience
- Develop talent
- Equip students with workforce-ready skills
Announcement
- We have selected 6 candidates to participate in the WolfieONE project during the Spring semester.
- They will work with their respective functional area leads to gain hands-on experience related to an ERP implementation.
- An orientation session will be held at the beginning of the semester.
