The main idea behind Vanderbilt SCNO is serving the community. We mostly team up with nonprofits based in Nashville, but will also occasionally have projects that reach beyond Davidson County.

How SCNO Can Help

SCNO can play a role in both identifying problems and finding a solution for areas of improvement clients have identified within their organization.

While COVID-19 has placed some limitations on the routine functions of SCNO, it has given us the opportunity to have an even greater impact on our clients than ever before.

Project Engagement Structure

The multidisciplinary projects SCNO embark on with our nonprofit clients often involve various areas to improve organizational operations or to strategize future initiatives via evidence-based practices.

An engagement with Vanderbilt SCNO lasts for 2 semesters (Fall and Spring).

  • Each client is carefully paired with a project team consisting of a Project Manager overseeing 5-6 Student Consultants,
  • Each team receives support from a Managing Director, a SCNO member on the Executive Board that provides feedback, direction, and development resources to the team. Managing Directors have previous management consulting experience.
  • Occasionally, SCNO alumni from top consulting organizations such as Bain & Company, McKinsey, Deloitte, and BCG provide invaluable guidance and direction to our teams
