Capstone Course Zoom Information Session
hosted by Career Development
- August 15, 2025 12:00pm - 12:45pm

Are you approaching the final stage of your Bay Area Part-Time MBA journey and unsure which capstone is right for you? This 45-minute info session will help you compare the two options: Integrated Management Simulation (IMS) and Integrated Management Project (IMP).
- IMS puts you in a dynamic simulation where teams manage a fictional company in real time.
- IMP connects you with real-world clients, from startups to established companies, to solve real business challenges.
You’ll hear directly from Barry Curtis, director of IMPACT projects, and Selina Laqui, IMP analyst, as they walk through what each experience involves—expectations, timelines, deliverables and the types of projects and organizations students work with. The panelists will share first-hand experiences, tips, and the kinds of roles and industries that best align with each capstone.
To help you get the most out of the session, we will be sharing prep materials in advance, allowing you to come prepared with questions specific to your interests and career path. You’ll leave with a clearer understanding of which track best supports your academic and professional goals.
