This feasibility analysis was prepared for Dr. Karen Oates, Dean of Arts and Sciences at Worcester Polytechnic Institute, to present the paradigm for Zurich, Switzerland as a project center. Following university requirements for existing project centers and the vision of faculty, we delineated the components for a sustainable, compelling project center. After assessing all relevant information from an on-site investigation, we concluded that the necessary environment exists in Switzerland and recommended a model for the establishment of the center.
