BUSM 6180

Professionals will manage, work-hands on and have a professional presentation on a comprehensive project that will meet the requirements of an organization. The project can also be narrow in scope but comprehensive in its design (e.g. new clean technology, innovation of a product or service in an international context, or a business plan with the respective academic framework). They will develop and complete the project in partnership with industry. Professionals will have an opportunity to integrate business theory with polytechnic skills. The business theory will be fully researched and it is not limited to the client organization but includes the broader literature on the subject matter in addition to the client’s primary research. When appropriate, professionals taking the course will provide recommendations that will have metrics attached to the plan, so the operational organization client can measure the success or failure of the activity undertaken.
