Fall 2012 Course Additions & Revisions

By Derek Keller

Please note the following course additions and changes in the fall 2012 schedule:

1. A new course in sustainability has been added at main campus - MBA 590.010 Sustainability and Business.  It will meet on Monday nights from 6:00 pm to 8:45 pm, and will be considered for credit within Entrepreneurship and Innovation (Product and Service) concentrations.  This course description will be listed at http://poole.ncsu.edu/mba/full-time/curricula/course-descriptions/#a4493 –

Right before everyone’s eyes, businesses are changing the way they operate to become more sustainable.  Will you be prepared to lead businesses in this new ever-changing world?  Do you know what is meant by sustainability? How businesses are developing sustainable practices? How they report their progress?  This class discusses:

 

• Current sustainability trends
• How businesses integrate sustainability into their strategies
• The tools businesses use to operate in a sustainable manner
• Current and evolving sustainability reporting practices
• Future sustainability trends

 

This course is a “must” for leading business in the 21^st century.

 

1. The one-hour SAP course was changed from the advanced course with prior SAP course pre-requisites to a beginning course with no pre-requisites (MBA 610-006 Beginning SAP), http://poole.ncsu.edu/mba/current-students/registration/fall-2012-one-credit-hour-courses/.
2.  MBA 610-604 Going Public will be considered credit for the Finance concentration, not the Supply Chain concentration.

Thank you.

Sincerely

The MBA Program
