Management 3000 Honors Schedule F2021 10.30.21.pdf 

 

Course Description:

Using a combination of lecture and seminar-discussion format, we will explore the basic concepts of management, organization, and their application to business operations. Our weekly schedule will typically look like this: Mondays will consist of lecture and class discussion. Wednesdays will consist of class discussion about practical application of material, case studies, reflection exercises, and real world examples.

As an honors course, we will focus on both learning and development. The class format and structure encourages a deeper level of learning and thinking about management issues. Learning will go beyond simple memorization and identification of key management concepts and will encourage students to consider managerial implications and real world application – both good and bad. Students will be asked to consider their own opinions, preferences, and ideas behind important management decisions. The reflection and discussion format will help students develop their professional skills through both written and oral communication by providing students with the opportunity to become conversant in these issues.
