Organization
Strategic management deals with the development, planning and implementation of corporate strategies. The goal is to generate sustainable competitive advantages that enable long-term existence in the market. In recent years, this goal has been increasingly flanked by corporate social responsibility, which relates to society and the environment. Against this background, the seminar Strategische Unternehmensführung gives students a deeper insight into current research as well as scientific work and theoretical as well as empirical approaches to research. The aim of the seminar is to deepen the knowledge of selected, current issues in strategic management.
Objectives of the course
After completing the course, the students will have the necessary basic knowledge, analytical methods and technical skills to independently complete a scientific paper. In addition, the course teaches systemic skills for the application of theoretical concepts and critical analysis of complex, subject-related problems. Through the group work and presentation of the seminar paper, the students also learn important social skills such as teamwork, communication and conflict skills.
Structure of the course
- The seminar starts with a kick-off event in which the students are given an overview of the topics to be worked on and an introduction to scientific work.
- Participating students will write a seminar paper on one of the available topics.
- Presentation and communication workshop with one of our practice partners will also take place as part of the seminar.
- Finally, the seminar participants will present and discuss their seminar papers in the plenum.
