BUKD-X513 Topics in Business Analysis
- 12 weeks
- 1.50 credits
Students will work on a live real-life case that requires development of an integrated business recommendation. This authentic case permits students to apply the fundamentals they have studied during their first year in Kelley Direct in a capstone experience. As such students will be required to analyze and solve a highly complex, multi-faceted business problem. Throughout the week, instructors will cover a variety of topics relevant to the “live” case. These sessions are designed to both review key concepts introduced during the first year of the KD program and introduce new concepts that extend students’ understanding of strategic analysis in a global environment. Sessions topics include: strategic analysis with special emphasis on country analysis and market entry strategies, financial analysis, risk analysis and risk mitigation, business ethics, and critical thinking. In addition, instructors will also review where and how to gather data needed to conduct complex strategic analyses, how to make effective presentations, and how to create a effective slide deck using storyboarding. *This course is the new course for the Kelley Connect Week (formally called in-residence)
