| Course content and structure |
|
This course forms one of the theoretical 'core courses'
in the MSc International Business and Politics
program. The aim of this course is to provide you with a
theoretical and contextualized understanding of international
business strategy, and the ability to approach complex strategy
issues from various perspectives. Several of the subsequent, more
practice-oriented courses in the MSc IBP program will build on
these theoretical building blocks.

| Feedback during the teaching period |
| We try to offer feedback in response to your
questions whenever feasible although please appreciate that there
are often time constraints. Please feel free to take advantage of
the ‘office hours’ offered by full-time staff members, although
these can never be a substitute for participation in lectures and
classes. We also encourage you to ask questions or make comments in
class and form self-study groups to secure peer feedback on your
work. Finally, please note that the course also offers a Q&A
forum on Learn, which you are welcome to use to pose questions and
solicit feedback. |
