The purpose of this seminar is to introduce students to the principal theoretical frameworks and methodological approaches researchers use to explore the field of management. Management is a complex yet interesting area to study.
Any course is a compromise between breadth and depth of coverage.
This tension between two goods influences the range of topics to include and exclude, as well as the specific readings to include and exclude. Hopefully, however, the choices made in designing this course provide a fundamental background in management and will permit you to approach the ever-growing literature in this field from a sophisticated perspective. In this role, you should be prepared to make a presentation at the beginning of the seminar. The following information would be a good starting point. To the extent possible, it would be helpful to let us know how you view the inter-relationships of your topic with previous topics discussed in the seminar.
