Michaelmas Subjects

Last week SBS sent through a link and password to the intranet site which contained a whole host of information from procedures & IT to schedules & course outlines.

The basic course outline is available on the SBS website. However in a nutshell, the subjects that I will be taking between Oct and Dec this year are as follows:

Finance 1: "A foundation in finance with particular emphasis on financial decisions taken by firms"
Financial Reporting: Accountancy practices and strategy
Decision Science: Statistics
Managerial Economics: "Application of Microeconomics to business decisions"
Strategy: Strategy?!?
Developing Effective Managers: Organisational behaviour

Also, within each of these outlines (one is 20 pages long), is the recommended reading prior to the start of the course, essential reading prior to each lecture and an accountancy 'preliminary exercise'.

That should keep me busy between now and October.

Oh, as an aside, Namiko and I tried out that Skype translator. It is not bad, but also not brilliant. Anyway, it is still in beta, so I will check it out again in the future.
