| Course content and structure |
|
The course is planned to present models for decisions making
with a focus on the service industry. The focus is on market forms,
game theory, risk management, pricing, price discrimination,
auctioning, selected managerial decision taking, investment and
finance theory and business cases related to the curriculum.
10 x Lecturing (L1-L10)
The course consists of 10 lectures (L1-L10) each of 3 x 45
minutes. The lectures will explore the core areas of the theory
requiring a considerable amount of self-study. It is advisable with
4-6 hours of preparation for each lecture.
4x Active workshops (W1- W4)
Each workshop is 6 lectures of each 45 min. The workshops consist
of cases in theoretical and empirical problems and are part of the
curriculum. Naturally these active learning sessions will
correspond to the content and headlines of the previous lectures.
The workshops are very important for the learning process. All
students have to answer and submit online 3 workshop-papers. The
workshops can be solved individually or in groups but the online
questions must be answered individually.
