Our History
Michigan Engineering Consulting Group (MECG) was founded in 2023 by Jonathan Fay (Mechanical Engineering, Class of 2026) and Aaryan Singh (Industrial and Operations Engineering, Class of 2026) with the vision of creating a space where students could grow personally, professionally, and socially. What began as an idea between two students quickly took shape, and by Winter 2024, MECG welcomed its first cohort of members.
When MECG was founded, the University of Michigan lacked strong opportunities for non-business students to explore consulting. MECG filled that gap, offering students of all majors a chance to acquire business acumen, gain project experience, and collaborate regardless of their prior background or academic level.
As the club expanded, so did the opportunities. Members began taking on technical and business-focused projects, connecting through coffee chats, building cross-disciplinary teams, and touring top firms. With each semester, MECG has evolved into more than just a consulting club, it has become a place where students can create their own paths while contributing to meaningful work and building a closer community.
Today, MECG reflects both the growth of its members and the rapid changes of the world around us. By meeting the growing demand to combine both hard and soft skills, MECG continues to prepare students to thrive in consulting and beyond, carrying forward the founding vision to cultivate students growth for a successful career.
