This course also requires students to demonstrate significant business research and presentation skills by forming teams to analyze a strategic issue facing an actual firm. Recommendations based on that analysis are presented and defended orally and in writing and judged by a panel of professors and business leaders. Some sections of this course will be restricted to students admitted to specific degree programs. (Offered every semester.) 4 credits
