Learning outcomes
Knowledge
The objective of the course is presenting the main models, methods and tools for the management and organisation of firms. Such models and tools will allow the student not only to interpret the specific reality in which (s)he will be involved, but also to identify, formulate and solve problems. Besides, the course offers a facultative laboratory for the analysis of the balance sheets of existing firms working in the ICT (Information and Communication Technology) industry. The students that take part in such above-mentioned laboratory have to report their analysis and present their main findings. The laboratory's aim is that of both teaching technical competencies and developing capacities in terms of team working, writing a report and presenting results in a limited slot of time.
