International Financial Accounting |
The purpose of the course is to teach students how to read financial statements, present them with the main differences between US GAAP and IFRS and forge an opinion about the financial position and performance of a company. |
Management Control |
In this course, students will i) become familiar with the management-control information firms typically use and ii) develop an understanding of how management control is used as both a managerial decision-making tool and an incentive or behaviour-control mechanism. |
International Finance |
The course deals with the nature and purposes of financial management in the international context. It covers the issues that make financial decisions of internationally oriented firms more complex than those faced by purely domestic ones. |
International Trade Tools |
The course’s objective is to develop an understanding of international trade law, the obligations of the parties in an international contract for the sale of goods, and the remedies available in the event of a breach of contract. |
International Business Project |
In a competitive world, the project approach needs ever more dedicated knowledge. During training sessions, students will learn the main ingredients of solution-selling on internationally- based projects. |
