Course description

This course is designed to provide students with an opportunity to solve a business problem in a global context, by applying theory and skills developed in previous courses. Working in small teams, and supervised by a faculty member, students will conduct primary and secondary research, develop and evaluate alternative solutions, and present a final recommendation to the instructor. The final report will summarize the methodology and approach taken, justify the reasons for selecting the specific solution, and outline a practical work plan for implementing the proposed solution, including estimated timeline and budget. The students’ work will be formally assessed by their instructor, and informally by their classmates.
