Texas 180 Degrees Consulting members on the UT Austin campus

About Us

Driven students. Real impact.

We became a branch of 180 Degrees Consulting in Fall 2018. We're UT students who want to make a difference through consulting, and we welcome new members every semester.

Our Mission

Why we do this.

Texas 180 Degrees Consulting is designed to help students gain access to real-world consulting experience as they provide support to local nonprofit organizations.

These organizations typically lack the resources — time, money, professionals — to carry out their strategic visions. This is where we come in. As students at The University of Texas at Austin, we advise nonprofits on opportunities that provide strategic and operational efficiencies.

At the same time, consultants get hands-on experience alongside preparation for a consulting career through workshops run during our general meetings.

Our Core Values

What we run on.

Collaboration

We value collaboration in the work we do with our clients and one another. When we combine our strengths towards a common cause, we achieve measurable impact for our clients and for the organization as a whole.

Drive

Our consultants are driven to make positive change in our Austin community. We aim to be the driving force of change in nonprofits and on the UT Austin campus.

Service

We value leaders who are passionate about service and giving back to the community. We use the outlet of consulting to truly make a difference with our clients. It is a passion for service that differentiates 180 from any other organization.

Impact

At 180, we strive to make an impact. We aim to exceed deliverables with clients while fostering relationships with one another, all with the common mission of creating a lasting impact on the community around us.
