About us
The Tippie Consulting Club (TCC) is a student organization at the University of Iowa dedicated to helping students explore and prepare for careers in consulting. We provide resources, training, and mentorship to equip students with the skills needed to succeed in this fast-paced field.
Our mission is twofold:
- Case Competitions: Supporting students as they represent the University of Iowa in business case competitions across the country, gaining real-world problem-solving experience.
- Career Development: Creating pathways for students to learn about consulting through networking, professional development, and hands-on opportunities.
By fostering a supportive community and connecting students with industry professionals, TCC empowers members to sharpen their analytical and leadership skills while building lasting connections.

Students from all majors are welcome and encouraged to join our organization. Recruitment is open year-round; however, priority for event participation will be given to those who join earlier in the semester. For more information about meeting times and locations, please contact us.
Event highlights
Case Competitions
Business case competitions are real-world simulations where students analyze complex business challenges and present strategic recommendations to industry professionals and judges. These experiences sharpen analytical thinking, teamwork, and presentation skills. They also provide students with networking opportunities and an introduction to the fast-paced world of consulting. TCC provides several opportunities for students to participate in case competitions at the University of Iowa and nationally.
Workshops
TCC is committed to helping students discover and prepare for careers in consulting by offering a variety of professional development opportunities. We will be hosting workshops throughout the semester related to resume and application guidance, case interview preparation, networking events with alumni and professionals, guest speakers from top firms, and interactive skill-building sessions.
Career Fair
During the spring, TCC, in collaboration with the Tippie Business Honors Society (TBHS), will host a specialized career fair designed to connect students with top consulting firms and other leading employers. The event will provide students the chance to explore internship and full-time opportunities, practice networking in a professional setting, and learn more about career paths in consulting and related industries. While the fair will highlight consulting firms, there will also be a wide range of employers in attendance, offering valuable opportunities for students of all business interests. This event will be an excellent way to build meaningful connections and take the next step toward your career goals.
