Course content |
The seminar on finances provides students with a systematic overview of the interplay of business occurrences relevant for accounting, beginning with accounting/profit and loss through to how to interpret these figures within the framework of the annual accounts. In the finance part of the course, the business game "factory" is used to teach students about the "setting levers" in companies, about their effects on business results and about measures to improve results. The business process management part conveys the process-oriented perspective on a company. The focus is on the main business processes of a company and their interaction. It also discusses how to analyze, improve, measure and control business processes. On the basis of concrete case studies from the company's practice, the students practice how problems in business processes can be recognized and which design principles can be used to remedy weak points in business processes. |
