Each instructor will provide specific case studies and evaluation criteria. Search the literature and utilize course textbooks to access current information relevant to each case. Discuss important concepts demonstrating current knowledge and understanding of each case. Present case studies to the class in a professional format.
Attendance is mandatory.
The course grade will be lowered by one letter grade for an unexcused absence or two or more instances of tardiness. Each of the curricular areas will count equally toward the final course grade. Students with disabilities that need special accommodations for lecture or exams are encouraged to make an appointment with the instructor early in the semester to discuss their specific needs.
