Case Study |
Bossard Asia Pacific |
|
In the Case Study, we will look at issues related to the various courses in the program. One objective is to get a brief taste of program content. Another obejective is to illustrate that most problems in a real business cannot be handled by isolating a single project area - everything is interconnected.
You will be divided into groups, and some groups will briefly present ineach module. Discussion in the modules will be modereated by faculty.
