  • Lecture-Discussion.  Lectures and Discussions will be used to guide and facilitate acquisition of knowledge. The lecturer explain key concepts of the course to allow students to use their study time more effectively. The focus of the lecture is to guide, explain and facilitate discussions from among the students in the class rather than to transmit facts which can be read from the recommended textbooks or reading materials.  Students are therefore required to do advance reading in order to actively participate in the course discussions.
  • Seminars. Seminars complement the lectures.  These are interactive sessions conducted by students. It is designed to give students opportunity to test their understanding of the materials covered in the lectures and private study usually   reference on questions identified in advance by the lecturer.
  • Case Study / Problem-solving. This learning methodology allows students to apply the concepts, tools and techniques of analysis learned and apply them to the real business problems.  The case study serves as a supplement to the theoretical knowledge imparted during the lecture component of the class.
  • Workshop / Group Work / Assignments / Simulations / Role Play/Industry Immersion. These learning methodologies involve students working in small groups and encourages group learning. The methodologies provide opportunities for independent learning, creative and reflective thinking, debate and discussions amongst members of the group to provide an opportunity for students to develop depth and breadth in the understanding of the course.

Assessment and Research Work:

  • Quizzes (Problem sets / Case analysis).  These enable students to develop self-confidence, accuracy and readiness for major exams.
  • Major Exams (Problem sets / Case analysis).  Two (2) proctored major exams, i.e. midterm and final exams are administered per term.
  • Research work. Assignment questions are provided so that students will have the opportunity to use the information provided in the lectures and textbooks and to test students’ degree of understanding on the discussed topics.
