Critical Analysis

In this course we attempt to provide students with the ability to reason critically about issues that they are presented with, whether in business or in other aspects of their daily living.  To critically reason one must learn to understand an argument, dig into the its underlying premises and determine whether what has been said is supported by any factual base.  The course uses examples from business, politics and other areas to hone a student’s ability to critically analyze problems and developed reasoned positions on difficult topics.

Decision Science

In this course we examine tools and approaches that help students formulate business problems as decision models and solve them by intelligent use of different management science approaches.  Students are introduced to the use of decision trees, game theory, decision making under uncertainty and with risk, and other topics to provide a broad base for analyzing real world business problems and coming to reasoned decisions based on the available facts.
