Inhoud

In this project in Period 1.2, students will learn relevant theory about the external business environment in terms of economics and research. 

First, through a series of (mass) lectures focused on economics, students will learn about the most important global macro-economic factors and policies that drive international trade and business development. Focus will be both on basic economic terminology and mechanisms as well as the predominant markets that businesses operate in. At the end of this, students will be equipped to determine how relevant economic factors may shape business decisions. 

Second, through a series of (mass) lectures focused on research, students will learn how to organize and analyze business data, conduct descriptive analysis, and use regression analysis to make a prediction.   

Third, through a series of workshops, students will apply what they have been taught in the economics and research (mass)lectures by analyzing and practicing relevant cases in class.
