Faculty: Syed Kamal
Description: This course will expose you to the concepts and terminologies of all business disciplines in an engaging simulated environment. You will learn the fundamentals of business and the essence of each business discipline without getting bogged down in the details. Using an engaging game-like simulation, you will team up with some of your classmates to take charge of a corporation. By competing against other teams in the class in an interactive simulation game, you will test your business skills and become immersed in the learning process. You will gain an understanding of how management, manufacturing, marketing, finance, accounting, and human relations functions work together to operate a successful business. In addition to the simulation, you will be introduced to personal finance and money management topics involving time value of money, credit card debt, student loans, credit scores, facts of auto, home, renters & health insurance, financing a car, buying a first home, and investments/retirement savings. Field trips to local businesses will supplement the learning process (if safely possible).
