ACCT 373 - The Boardroom: A View Behind the Corporate Curtain


Credits: 4

Prerequisite: ACCT 231, FIN 221, or ECON 210. This class is designed to help students understand the framework in which business operates. We discuss corporate governance both from the perspective of the corporation and from the perspectives of the other actors within this framework, such as institutional investors, activist investors, and auditors. The course incorporates working sessions in addition to class that include in-depth financial and corporate governance analyses of the banking industry, including a specific bank traded on NASDAQ. These analyses culminate in the unique opportunity to attend this bank’s annual meeting of shareholders as well as a meeting of the board of directors.
