Empowering students with the skills, experience, and network to launch
successful careers in private equity and private credit.
Our mission is to prepare students for careers in private equity and private credit by equipping them with the technical skills, real-world experience, and professional network necessary to thrive. The club offers a structured curriculum and hands-on projects that provide practical exposure, while active collaboration with industry professionals enhances learning beyond the classroom.
By connecting students with leading firms and professionals, we open doors to meaningful experiences, lasting relationships, and potential recruitment opportunities. CHOMP Private Markets is dedicated to developing the next generation of private market professionals through education, experience, and connection.
The Analyst Program features a professionally led speaker series with industry experts from across the country, offering career insights, technical training, and networking opportunities. Analysts receive mentorship from senior program members, access to private markets learning resources, and conclude the semester with a collaborative credit and equity case study project.
The CHOMP Senior Analyst Program is a semester-long leadership experience where advanced students mentor and guide analyst teams through the CHOMP Case Study. Senior Analysts work alongside their teams on the same credit and equity case study project while taking on additional responsibilities in delegation, quality control, and team coordination.
The Associate Program is an exclusive cohort of CHOMP members who have completed prior programs and will collaborate with the leadership board / industry advisors to conduct market research, develop fund theses, create fundraising decks, & pitch directly to partnered firms— advancing CHOMP’s multi-year initiative to launch one of the first university-led, private markets funds.
The long-term goals of CHOMP Partners are to transform the club into both a career-preparative platform and a pipeline of talent that private equity and credit firms worldwide will tap into for recruiting qualified candidates. We hope that our alumni continue to support the club’s events through speaker sessions and potential recruitment opportunities. Ultimately, our
vision is to make CHOMP Partners a premier resource for the next generation of private equity and private credit professionals.
