TEACHING - Combined Foundation Course for MBA program

  • 1.  TEACHING - Combined Foundation Course for MBA program

    Posted 05-09-2002 10:35
    Greetings,

    We recently decided to streamline our MBA prerequisites and rather than
    offering foundation courses in several different areas we would like to move
    towards a single course that would provide a basic background in accounting,
    finance, statistics and perhaps economics (certainly an aggressive goal).

    We have gathered input from various faculty members regarding what they view
    as necessary foundational knowledge for each of these areas in the core of
    the MBA and planned on using that as a starting point.

    However, I was wondering if anyone else has done this or something similar
    and if so if you might be willing to share any insights, syllabi, or
    recommendations for book(s).

    Thanks in advance!
