Join the Jon Brumley Texas Venture Labs team for an info session on our TVL Practicum. Learn how graduate students participating in this elective can earn course credit while getting hands-on experience with our TVL Accelerator startups, expand their knowledge base and their networks, and become strong leaders in their future careers.

The TVL Practicum Class is a cross-campus elective course that teaches graduate students how to work with and consult with startups. You will work in a multi-disciplinary team on a project-driven curriculum that immerses you in market analysis and research, teaches about early-stage ventures, and provides a framework for strategically thinking through business problems to directly deliver positive outcomes for Texas-based startups.

Here is what TVL Practicum alumni have to say about their experience:

“I really enjoyed working with a team of students who had expertise in areas that I didn’t have…this further highlighted how diversity is so important. The experience was very similar to the consulting work I’m doing now and I think it prepared me well.” Tammy Chun – MBA 2020, Consultant at Boston Consulting Group

“The learnings in this class directly fed into all the non-technical aspects of working in a corporate setting and has definitely given me a boost as I navigate my career going forward…a great addition to the skillset I already had.”  Aditya Jain – MS in Computational and Applied Mathematics 2020, Data Scientist at SparkCognition

“TVL Practicum gives you behind the scenes access to real startup challenges.”  Aimy Steadman – MBA 2013, Founder & COO at Future/Proof

Fun fact: the majority of our students come from UT’s non-business colleges, so this is a fantastic opportunity to network outside of your department! We always receive positive feedback from students taking the course with an interest in entrepreneurship or consulting projects, both MBA and non-business students alike.
