Can anybody who is currently doing or has recently done the subject Business Strategy, give me an overview about the subject?
Does it still have the same structure and asssessments similar to the overview below? Does its involve a Mid-Semester Exam?
21193 Introduction to Corporate Strategy/Business Strategy
- This subject includes 1 lecture (1 hour) and 1 tutorial (1 hour) to give you a total of 2 hours a week
- Mathematical ability is not required in this subject apart from a few simple calculations. This subject is more importantly based around the application of business and strategical concepts to a business framework. Very practical natured subject with only a 30% final exam (Spring 05) with the bike simulation the main focus of assessment [nearly everyone passed before the final]. There is very minimal direct examination of lecture material apart from the 90 MC 30% final.
-This subject is very group based with the formation of a 3-6 people team to compete as a bike firm through a computer simulation. This simulation makes teams compete against other class mates. It culminates in weekly decisions to affect performance, a group strategic outline and a board presentation. Also there is 2 case studies which are defined as group work but are more self focused team work as the questions do not relate.
-Renamed Business Strategy from Austumn 06 onwards
(THE LECTURER IS REVIEWING THE SUBJECT'S STRUCTURE, CONTENT AND ASSESSMENTS I AM LEAD TO BELIEVE) (Thanks to maka).
Any info would be great. Thanks
