“ The IMS Brogan summer consulting engagement (2015) is an excellent way to gain first-hand experience in Health Care Consulting. We had direct exposure to senior consulting staff and worked closely with members of a multi-functional team. Given the opportunity to work with a unique set of proprietary data, we investigated and answered pertinent questions in a hot area of health care today. This was a challenging and invaluable consulting experience that also led to two successful conference publications, and happily my current position as Consultant at IMS.”— Sheri Shojaie
